I (trosky) continue to believe that the main determinant for commodity prices is the boom in China - as long as it continues, commodities are likely to stay firm. in the West, rising commodity prices have currently a deflationary effect, contrary to conventional wisdom. this is also why the bond market has remained unperturbed by the rise in the CRB - in a deflationary era, rising commodity input prices squeeze margins and leave consumer wallets lighter - and thereby actually intensify deflationary pressures in the wider economy. the fact that this opinion is shared by only about 5-10 people all over the world by my reckoning bolsters the likelihood that it's a correct assessment. : )


I knew that the current boom in Comm. is because of China, butthat this has deflationary effect is a new angle.

Cheers
