The CRB is going to get a golden cross. Me thinks....it's inflation time.

As gold breaks out, not everyone believes (which is great for us):

Asked if it's possible that a gold bubble is forming with so many investors piling in, Johnson says: "If it's a bubble, it's a bubble with some foundation. There is a heightened risk element in the economy, and as long as you have that heightened risk, there's a good foundation for gold to continue to rise."

But not everyone recommends gold for the small investor. Roubini Global Economics, a New York consulting firm, last week issued a report encouraging investors "not to get giddy about surging gold prices."

Over the long-term, Roubini's economists recommended underweighting or zero-weighting gold in portfolios. They said a state-issued currency system, like the U.S. has, will prevail, with moderate inflation and low growth in high-income countries reducing the need for gold's safe haven benefit. They added that there are "better financial risk/return trade-offs than gold."
