The Fed's extremely loose behavior came to a stall in late
March. The liquidity it has created was the main drive
behind these markets, commodities included, IMHO.
(the latter markets are in a bull market, so I am referring
only to the parabolic moves we've seen lately). That's why
I think they are dangerous - liquidity is not there anymore,
the Fed probably got scared of the move in commodities
and currencies + interest rates in response to its irresponsible
printing. It knows higher rates will pop the housing bubble,
although I'm not so sure its a bubble, given commodity price
increases; houses are built out of materials.
