immediately when looking at the graph, which was this: The scale appears as a percentage.

The ratio of 1.43 just means that the stock of money when measured as M2 was used 1.43 times.

Compare that with this: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/M2V

When it comes to inflation expectations the public seems to have a different opinion.

https://www.clevelandfed.org/our-research/indicators-and-data/inflation-expectations.aspx

To my understanding the inflation issue does boil down to this:

1) is the fiscal deficit going to be financed with the printing of money instead of borrowed money? And

2) is the FED going to allow inflation to run above its 2% target?

PS. The QP=MV model is the same model that lead these guys to cry out and loud: Hyperinflation just around the corner. Curiously, they no longer tell us the the inflation figures are fake.

Are you trying to say that M2 and inflation are positively correlated?

Not much correlation according to researchers at the Fed:
