Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Answer 1

I would probably say inflation first, then stagflation, recession, depression... (just like the Great Depression).

Why?  Because as we can see in the US right now, inflation has been continuous (6% last month on food?).  This should then follow with more unemployment leading to recession.  Agree? No?  Yes?

[My answer: see above]

Answer 2

Also agree that "inflation" can come first on that order
