Why would anyone be interested in your prognostications when your track record is so poor. If you make enough "predictions" you are bound to get a couple of them right, and undoubtably you will use the 10% of your correct predictions to blow your horn about what a great predictor of the future you are. However, you will conveniently omit the 90% wrong predictions from your resume'. ]]> Tue, 23 Dec 2008 10:49:47 -0500

Arable land is in decline the world over, and this is even more so in China. Agricultural land has been converted to factories and power plants, (hydro and coal) and with the growth requirements in just China alone, (not including India) there will be demand increases for all basic agricultural commodities. If there is a weather event in any agriculture producing, exporting country, this will create even more demand for that agricultural product

While I believe that we will have a short term deflationary cycle, the long term trend for all commodities will continue to rise.

All recessions end eventually, and world governments are pumping extraordinary amounts of capital into their economies. This stimulation to world economies has no precedent, and can lead to only one thing, Inflation, and once you let the inflation genie out of the bottle, it is very difficult to contain.

While you may be correct in the next six months, the inevitable result of the world economic policies will be inflation.
