A bizarre hypothesis if there ever was one. Globalization was fading before the COVID-19 pandemic in the wake of Trump's trade wars. This had little effect on inflation in the US. There are obvious reasons for the present inflationary burst that relate to ultra-loose monetary policy and ultra-expansionary fiscal stimulus in the US, along with a massive energy shock. These factors are fundamentally transient and will fade away rapidly.
