Three Asset Classes that Can Actually Outpace Coming Inflationary Price Increases [View article]
A top-flight article from Paco!
To MexCom - you have been drinking too much Kool-Aid from Washington and Wall Street - deflation is merely a fairy tale - a good story to get 'suckers' to buy Treasuries at near zero per cent. There has NEVER been a fiat currency which has increased in value - i.e. deflation - and there never will be.

The one point I totally disagree with is that the price of ag commodities is in a bubble. There are plenty of bubbles around, led by the whole deflation fantasy bubble in Treasuries and the US Dollar.
Also there seems to be a certain smugness or arrogance in the article and by commenters like Fughting Yoda - hey, we'll eat well here in the US, but in those emerging markets with billions of people, let them eat dirt.......
I have never seen an article on Seeking Alpha so 100% wrong. The so-called bubbles the author aren't bubbles at all, but unstoppable trends. The author is in total denial.
Here are the true current bubbles: 1) the Deflation Bubble - people are worried about a non-existent threat dreamed up by Wall Street and the Treasury to sell US Treasuries. 2) US Treasury market bubble 3) US Dollar bubble 4) US stock market bubble, particularly in financial and tech stocks (Google,Apple and other CNBC faves).
Jim Rogers: U.S. About to Have a Currency Crisis [View article]
Jim Rogers is usually spot on when discussing Long-Term trends. As can be seen by some of the commenters, his words are wasted on the deaf ears of traders who think one week is a long time.
Long-term the best places to invest money will be out of the Dollar and into real assets such as ag. If one must invest in stocks, invest in the emerging markets such as China.
The absolute worst places to put your money are US Treasuries (expcept TIPS) and US financial stocks which have been driven higher purely by bullish sentiment and has no fundamental drivers behind it, unlike commodities.

Anyone who follows Jim Rogers over the long-term has and will continue to make a bundle of money. It's only the short-term trader mentality types(who think one week is long-term) who don't like Jim Rogers.

I agree with you. I think that the move up in commodities in still in the 2nd or 3rd inning. The general public is still clueless about investing in commodities and the financial media absolutely loathes commodities.
