Real-world commodities in the past six months: • Oil has gone from $37.50/barrel to $63.50/barrel, a 70% move! • Lumber has gone from $500 to $1,500, a 200% move! (in six months!!) • Copper has jumped from $3.10 to $4.50, a 45% appreciation! • Coffee has soared from $100 to $143, a 43% gain! • Wheat has surged from $550 to $740, a 34% yield!
Oh, must not forget about a "chicken wing" shortage in the USA. Beef prices very high too. My favourite steak is like $15 each when las year on sale you could get 4 for $30.
