Today in Commodities: Crouching Tiger Hidden Commodity

You can't see that there is no demand for oil right now? That refineries are shutting down because of a lack of demand? That there are millions of barrels of oil and oil products in floating storage? That Cushing is getting very full?

Only funds think oil should be above $70 right now.

Inflation Trade Breaks Out Across the Board

You're dreaming if you think we are headed to $150 oil in the coming months. If oil goes to $150, we will be in the next depression.

In order to have inflation you have to have demand. Since people are still getting laid off and not getting raises, where is this demand going to come from? Foreclosures just hit a new all time high.

There may be inflation on Wall Street but there isn't any on Main Street.

To have inflation you have to have demand. With unemployment soaring, demand will take a long time to show up.

The housing market will never have the demand of a few of years ago because subprime mortgages won't be handed out like candy again.
