And then there was that bogus article that said Argentina had lowered it's inflation to 2% and you find out in the article that's monthly inflation and the yearly figure was like 190%.

If they managed to decrease from 190%/year to 2%/month (which is 27%/year) that's still an impressive result. Not as impressive to publish when you want to make a click bait.

I'm not sure how to put that to percentages thought, is it 86% and 143 percent points decrease?
