"U.S. inflation falls in November" That is one of the headlines I saw on the globe investor.

I keep reading this crap about there being no inflation, but if you look at the CRB index, it has been sitting around 260 for several months. Typically 220 is a neutral # for the CRB index. It has been sitting around 18% higher than the 220 level.

The CRB is a leading indicator of the direction the economy is headed. With the fall in the U.S. dollar, coupled with rising prices, and a huge trade deficit. It seems pretty certain to me that Inflation is already here. It is just being kept secret by the FED. If Interest rates are forced up, the bubble implodes!

Just my opinion
