>>Commodity Deflationary Spiral orchestrated by the financial wizards on Wall St who rule the Fed, the Senate and Congress. Right - the increase in oil production from shale is all a giant conspiracy to screw folks. Prices of commodities go up and down in response to supply and demand fundamentals, admittedly with some short-term deviations due to speculators. These systems are non-linear - a relatively small increase in production (or reduction in demand) can cause a significant change in price. The idea that it's all some conspiracy belongs in the same category as the zerohedge nuts that assured us that the dollar would collapse (and gold and other "real" assets would soar ) as a result of the Fed "debasing" our "fiat" currency with low short-term rates and QE.
