@ Julio: Krugman is wrong, just as he was wrong in 2008 about the same issue

@ Shane: How do you account for the run up and then run down in commodity prices in 2007-2009? Take wheat, which had a bumper crop and huge surpluses, what caused its price to more than double only to fall back down 9 month later. There is no way to explain this with fundamentals. And I have $100 to short commodity prices by late summer.
