With all the attention to the strength of the dollar, I began wondering about how a "global CPI" would have changed over the last couple of decades (and the next of course). A global CPI would be some kind of US dollar based (because my investments are mostly US dollars) CPI. The global CPI would average (or simply detail) the cost of the basket of goods in US dollars in Europe, Japan, China, SA, Canada, Mexico, and maybe a few others.
Is there any data like this around that anyone is aware of?
