Immaculate Disinflation
Immaculate disinflation describes a situation where inflation slows without causing a deep recession or a sharp increase in unemployment. Disinflation means that prices continue rising, but at a slower pace. It is not the same as deflation, where the overall price level falls. Higher interest rates normally reduce inflation by weakening demand, which can also hurt jobs and growth. The word “immaculate” is used when inflation improves while the wider economy remains surprisingly strong. It is an informal phrase, and economists may disagree over whether a particular period truly deserves the description.
Immediate or Cancel Order (IOC)
An Immediate or Cancel order tells the market to complete as much of an order as possible immediately and cancel the rest. A request to buy 1,000 shares may find only 600 available at acceptable prices. Those 600 can be purchased, while the remaining 400 disappear instead of waiting in the order book. An IOC order may also include a limit price, preventing purchases above the chosen maximum. It is useful when the trader values speed and does not want an unfilled amount to remain active after the first attempt.
Immutable
Immutable means that information cannot easily be changed after it has been recorded. On a blockchain, confirmed transactions are linked with earlier records and copied across many computers. Secretly changing an old transaction would require overcoming the network’s agreement process and rewriting connected data. This makes the history difficult to alter. Immutability does not mean that every blockchain application is perfect or permanent in every detail. Developers can sometimes update software, replace a smart contract, or add a new transaction that corrects an earlier mistake. The original record, however, normally remains visible.
Implied volatility
A measure of the expected volatility of an underlying asset based on the prices of its options contracts.
Import Price Index
The Import Price Index measures changes in the prices paid for goods and services purchased from abroad. In the United States, it is released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A rise may come from more expensive foreign products, higher commodity prices, or a weaker dollar that makes imports costlier. The index does not measure the number of products entering the country. It also does not show the final shop price, which may include shipping, taxes, and retail markups. Fuel can create large monthly swings, so reports often discuss the figures with and without petroleum.
Importing
Importing is the business process of bringing goods or services into a country from abroad. A company importing coffee must choose a supplier, agree on payment, arrange transport, complete customs documents, and meet local product rules. The final cost may include freight, insurance, tariffs, storage, and currency conversion. The importer may sell the goods to customers or use them in its own production. Importing therefore describes a chain of commercial and legal activities, not simply the moment when the product crosses the border.
