July 12, 2025: The Bottom formations and BREAKOUTS point to hyperinflation: ALL commodities flash BUY signals!
A BOTTOM, BEAR TRAPS, and the bullish wedges are coming alive and resulting in dramatic price rises...this is the beginning of the HYPERINFLATION! Remember the years and months leading up to the Weimar Hyperinflation...EXACTLY the same scenario we had as we have today (July 2015 - March 2023)
| See Agriculturals expressed in GOLD for the REAL PRICE! 2017 was a NIÑA year, 2018 was a dry year, and 2019 will be expensive. 2020 will be an inflation year, and 2025 will be a Hyperinflation year. |
Due to poor management, authorities have disrupted the natural forces that usually correct for food shortages, exacerbating the present situation beyond what it would have been without intervention. Additionally, Goldman Sachs & Co. could have RIGGED prices in this sector.
"Can you believe that some stupid-petty-government-officer in Brussels is deciding about the Agricultural sector in the EU?!"
People KNOW food is getting extremely expensive. Anyone doing some shopping also knows that $1 for one tomato is no exception, and when the price for a food item goes up from $1 to $1.20, this is, in fact, a 20% increase.
Volcanic activity and eruptions are primary factors contributing to poor crop yields. This will add fuel to the fire of food prices rising due to monetary inflation. Expect to see politicians blame speculation and Global Warming for the direct consequences of their stupidity (killing the goose that lays the golden eggs). Expect more social unrest as FOOD becomes EXPENSIVE! + 150% year to year, or FOOD has become VERY EXPENSIVE and will become even more expensive in 2011! Since 2004, agricultural prices have increased by 267% when expressed in Dollars and 215% in euros.
Agricultural commodities traditionally suffer during depressions until Hyperinflation starts...Agricultural products are low-order consumer Goods! - and the dramatic rise indicates we will see much more inflation soon.
Agricultural products are LOCG (low-order consumer goods). 2009 proves the price action of 2008 was a Bear Trap. On September 3, 2010, we had a CLEAR fresh breakout! There is no doubt this will have a severe impact on the cooked official inflation figures. Agricultural product prices fluctuate differently from those of other commodities, as a supply shortage can be adjusted much more quickly. Farmers tend to plant more crops when prices rise. Most of the time, Miners need 5 to 7 years to adjust production. Crude oil is also essential for farming as it affects the exploitation price (fertilizers are oil derivatives).
Especially in Europe (just like at the time of the USSR), the stupid politicians made food (pork) cheaper than the cost of feeding the pigs. Such is not only the result of political intervention but also one of the effects of Fractional Reserve banking and the creation of fiat money out of thin air...

Over the last year, many food commodities have broken long-term inflation-adjusted downtrends. This suggests that while characteristically volatile and subject to weather events, most food commodity prices can be expected to sustain levels above their historical norms during corrective phases.

The FOOD factor is (like energy) vital for Society. Historically, food shortages or high food prices have led to significant societal shifts. Belgium became independent in 1830 (during a period of depression), and the driving forces behind the French Revolution were the agricultural disasters of the 1770s-90s. [Remember the people standing at the gates of the King's palace in Versailles complaining there was no food for the children...and Marie-Antoinette telling them that they should eat Cake in this case. Today is no different - Sanchez (Spain) forces people to switch off the air conditioning under 27 Degrees Celsius and not to heat unless colder than 19 degrees Celsius.]
The situation in North Africa and the Middle East is directly related to the high cost of food. Those countries feel more pain as their fiat currencies have traditionally been weak because of their Rulers' mismanagement.
