* If CMA < FMCI and readings of FMCI and CMA are high, then it represents increasing economic growth and rising inflation.
example CMA = 1.2500 < FMCI = 1.2600
* If CMA < FMCI and readings of FMCI and CMA are high and the difference between CMA and FMCI is also high, then it represents exponential growth and exponential increase in inflation rate, close to hyper inflation.
example CMA = 1.2500 < FMCI = 1.2900
* If CMA < FMCI and the difference is above 3%, then it represents high growth rate , but inflation is higher than growth rate which may possibly lead to negative GDP.
