An extension of the nonlinear feedback (NLF) formalism to describe regimes of hyper- and high-inflation in economy is proposed in the present work. In the NLF model the consumer price index (CPI) exhibits a finite time singularity of the type $1/(t_c -t)^{(1- \beta)/\beta}$, with $\beta>0$, predicting a blow up of the economy at a critical time $t_c$. However, this model fails in determining $t_c$ in the case of weak hyperinflation regimes like, e.g., that occurred in Israel. To overcome this trouble, the NLF model is extended by introducing a parameter $\gamma$, which multiplies all therms with past growth rate index (GRI). In this novel approach the solution for CPI is also analytic being proportional to the Gaussian hypergeometric function $_2F_1(1/\beta,1/\beta,1+1/\beta;z)$, where $z$ is a function of $\beta$, $\gamma$, and $t_c$. For $z \to 1$ this hypergeometric function diverges leading to a finite time singularity, from which a value of $t_c$ can be determined. This singularity is also present in GRI.
