interesting read: The Impact on Financial Markets Monetary Growth, Wealth and Interest Rates members.tripod.de (excerpt) Regarding monetary expansion we are nearly at the same situation as at the beginning of the seventies: The huge upward movement for commodities in 1973 started first with a sharp decline for commodities, sharp increases of money supply and low interest rates and high economic growth. Money growth accelerated as savers were willing to buy securities worldwide. We all know what followed: the sharp increase of the oil price and other commodities triggered a spending frenzy, high volatility and high inflation. Today, the main difference I can see is the higher leverage. The lows for commodities are unprecedented. Also interest rates are at record low in some countries (Japan).
