I've been thinking of making a big bet on one investment.
Click the link... http://www.indexmundi.com/commodities/ ... It is a year to date index of the base prices of commodities...
In particular the price of things such as the following have shot up!
* cotton - to make clothes
* iron, copper - for infrastructure
* coffee, barley, corn, wheat
* beef, sugar, oil
Why is this important? well because those are base things, there are many things derived from them. So if the starting out costs have risen then somewhere along the lines at a point in time these costs will be passed onto the consumer. The impact will not be felt immediately because of company inventories and wharehouses.
In short. a storm is coming...
