There's a thread by gladstein about the report. The Tweet that kicked off the thread is:
New Zoltan says inflation hasn't peaked, but is just getting started
Says the "low inflation world" stood on three pillars:
-Cheap immigrant labor keeping wages down -Cheap goods from China raising living standards despite stagnant wages -Cheap Russian gas powering the EU

Cheap immigrant is still coming in, especially when the US maintain its competitive growth and opportunity, I don't see that changing any time soon.
Cheap goods aren't just from China anymore, the biggest advantages trading with China was its great supply chain, from raw material, manufacturing and transport. I think it's not an irreplaceable advantage though, since much of it could be moved offshore.
EU will have to accept they will struggle due to Russia/Ukraine conflict. That being said, I think Russia doesn't want to drag the war out, and the energy transition will take time to complete.

The quiet part out loud: "central banks are done fighting deflation with asset price inflation, and are now fighting inflation with asset price deflation", Zoltan masterfully explains.
