Not really, commodities are catching up with all the money
supply printed since 1980, and are thus rising in price from
very low levels.

Would not common sense dictate that the earth has finite resources.
So finite resources up against an ever increasing population = high prices. Simple!

World population

1800 = 978M
1900 = 1,650M
1950 = 2,521M
1999 = 5,978M
2011 (est)= 8 Billion

Show me the warehouses filled with rice, corn and wheat. Show me the new oil discoveries that are coming online to replace the declining "elephant" oil fields. Show me the zinc, copper, silver and gold mines that are mining metals by the millions of tons, ounces or grams as the case may be. Then, I will agree with you that we are in a commodities bubble that will burst.
