Proctor & Gamble does a lot of business in Asia, but that doesn’t make it immune from inflation.

Because of rising commodity prices, P&G is raising the price of its products inChina is going up. The price of Pampers diapers, forexample, is going up by 10%.

China isn’t the only country facing rising P&Gprices either. Proctor & Gamble said the average price of its products will increase by 16% around the globe.

Do you think any other companies will follow suit? Darn right they will. And what does that mean for inflation?
