It being down from two years ago is not the same as up from two years ago.
You obviously must agree with yourself that we have had not only no inflation in the past two years as the money supply has dropped.
We only had inflation while the money supply was increasing (it has been dropping for over two years), given your theory. Now we are in deflation.
This is all very simple.

What do you think is making the stock market go up. Those are all prices.
Nah. Stock prices have dropped over the last two years because decreasing the money supply causes deflation. That the prices have gone up is not only an illusion, it borders on a full-fledge psychotic delusion, since money supply changes = inflation. Don't show me one of those s&p charts to try to prove this wrong (this would be a sign of the delusion). The stock market went up drastically from the beginning of 2020 until around April of 2022 and has been dropping ever since.
Or, maybe, perhaps, money supply increase = inflation is simply incorrect.
