skinowski,

Lots of folks look'n [or hope'n] for agricultural products to be the harbinger sign of inflation. Hasn't happened for years... either thru manipulation or simply meeting demand by better production out of the mega-producers.

The Agricultural Commodities Index ($GKX) is a weighted average of the important agricultural commodity contracts as compiled by Goldman Sachs. Commodities used include Wheat, Red Wheat, Corn, Soybeans, Cotton, Sugar, Coffee, Cocoa, and Orange Juice.

$GKX is one of five components that make up the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI). The other components are Energy, Industrial Metals, Precious Metals, and Livestock.

The chart is following a pitchfork median line nicely.
Is below a support area and below an internal trend line.
To me it looks weak and inconclusive for a move higher.
