The approach lies in consideration of risks of ingredients of the consumer choice as a component of a common consumer basket and not that of individual units. The level of correlations of price growth of goods of consumer choice lies in the centre of attention of the offered strategy of control.

The state should use its power in the field of taxation, expenditures and monetary policy when eliminating economic instability.
