Will shortage be the big word this year? Seems to be a trend starting here. Want a big fat steak? The beef herd is the lowest it has been in 75 years; it will cost you. How about silver's meteoric rise. On Tv they tell you silver has an industrial usage, yeah, basically the same one it had this time last year. Metals and minerals are all the rage this year as possible shortages loom. Oil is already ramping. Wars are usually inflationary as they draw resources away from the regular economy, Just the excuse Wall Street speculators are looking to start a big ramp job? Manufacture  another shortage somewhere?

 

The State of the Union is Tuesday night. If you are Mr. Combover, do you want America watching the evening news and seeing bloody children being carried away from crumbled buildings. Nope. It's way too risky; you wait until after. Too much can go wrong. There are plenty of other issues he can lie about. jmho

And the 'P' word - as in parabolic.  Looks just like the SLV move.  No doubt it will end the same.
