I was looking for a definition of money at dismal.com and came across an essay "Commodities Fall Short"

dismal.com

This paragraph caught my attention:

"To be an effective store of value and thus a good indicator of asset price inflation, a commodity market must be characterized by stable supply and demand conditions. Low volatility of demand over the short-term and moderate growth in supply productivity over the long-term is desirable. No significant commodity market has met these conditions over the past twenty years"
