Inflation is caused by low rates, if FED wants to help Americans on what your worried about it should start raising....
Based on my charts, things are deflating right now, I trust my charts. My wife and I shop at a discounter for much of the food we do not grow. Prices really are not so bad. And quality is of the best, German owned operation, they do it right!
There is not doubt population explosion on the bell curve playing a factor as well.
Cash will be king. Again at some point ahead. And food will deflate as well.
Plant a garden, tear up your lawn. Bell Pepper, Melons, Corn, Tomatoes going in at the West house in the next week. Potatoes, Onions, Shallots, Strawberries, Peas, Spinash, Salad all well along.
Apples, Pears, Plums, Figs....
The Rasberries look like a bumber crop this year! And we always pick and can a ton of the free and wild growing blackberries at all the local farm fields come summer.
We grow a lot of what we eat, organic. With free, very clean water via our forage.
It has taken years and a ton of hard work to get the soil just right, but after that it pays off big.......do not understand why so few have BIG back and front yard produce farms on their suburban property!
How many of your urban neighbors have front of the house veggie gardens, my guess, very few. Yet they complain about food costs. Laughable. So, American, these days.
