Cocoa - The Last Commodity Standing [View article]
Demand for cocoa based products would seem to be less affected by supply than gasoline, for instance-- (only maybe a dollar for a chocolate fix versus $70 to fill up your tank when gas prices were high). So even a 25% increase in retail price would impact your wallet only 25 cents a pop. Seems like a good idea to invest in cocoa as long as supplies get tighter and raw materials for chocolate go higher.
The political climate in the producing countries could be dedstabilizing to production as well as the weather.
