IMDb lists "Inflation" as an 8-minute movie, but the one I watched did not even cross the 3-minute mark. I guess they sped it up like they did with other films by early German filmmaker Hans Richter. This one here is among his most known works and he obviously knew what was going on as this film was made 1-2 years before the big crash at the New York Stock Exchange. This reference is also the only real reason to watch the film. It is among Richter's better works for sure, but it's not a particularly memorable watch again. Also the colors do not really play a role in this one. It's more about the people we see here. Improvement is certainly visible compared to his earlier works, but it is a pretty slow process.
