There are a lot of people on FR that have caught the Gold Bug and see inflation everywhere. They rightfully see the FED's QE* efforts as inflationary, but the data tells a different story.

The CRB Index is the Commodity Research Bureau's index of major commodities. The index comprises 19 commodities: Aluminum, Cocoa, Coffee, Copper, Corn, Cotton, Crude Oil, Gold, Heating Oil, Lean Hogs, Live Cattle, Natural Gas, Nickel, Orange Juice, Silver, Soybeans, Sugar, Unleaded Gas and Wheat.

Followed by inflation.

Followed by hyper-inflation.
