What number of of you could have heard me say that commodities are inherently unstable?

Clearly, from this chart, you’ll be able to see that after the oil rally within the mid Seventies, the CPI went from almost 9% in 1974 all the way down to 2% in 1976. Sugar, my favourite barometer of inflation, ran to $.66 a pound in 1974, after which all the way down to round $.08 cents a pound in 1976. Enormous. As sugar peaked, inflation, as measured by CPI, had a stupendous drop inside 2 years.

Equally, the CPI peaked in June 2022 at round 9%, and right here we’re with CPI at the moment at 3.6%. If the timeline matches, we may see inflation decline additional into 2024. Nonetheless, all the things strikes loads quicker now.

So, let’s assume that historical past rhymes reasonably than repeats. If that’s the case, inflation is due for one more run, even when oil calms down from present ranges.

After the trough in inflation in 1976, it took 4 years for the subsequent peak to hit. In 1980, CPI reached almost 15%. Sugar ran from $.08 again as much as round $.45 a pound by 1980.

At current, if we scale back the timeframes, after 1.5 years of declining inflation, possibly we see one other 2-3 years of climbing inflation.

Does inflation peak in 2024-2025? It could be a bit horrifying, worrying about a lot larger inflation. Nonetheless, we search for alternatives to generate income.

Final week we wrote about gold miners. Immediately, September 18th, GDX the ETF for gold miners cleared the 50-DMA for a second consecutive time and went right into a confirmed recuperation part. And that is earlier than the Fed assembly.

We additionally talked about that miners usually lead the dear metals markets. And all heading larger means extra inflation considerations.
