THE RETURN OF THE COMMODITY SUPER CYCLE

Don’t look now, but commodities are shooting higher across the board again. The CRB index is higher by 2% today and the raw commodity index inside of Exodus is at 6 mo highs.

CRB

Raw

We’ve been seeing a hellacious rally in everything D. Gartman used to like since the Feb bottom. The buy of a lifetime was there to be had. Unfortunately, hindsight is 20/20.

The year to date leaders includes coal +38%, silver +22%, gold +18%, lithium +17%, uranium +13% and soybeans up 11%. Not to mention, there has been one heck of a run underway in oil, steel and even wheat, which is higher by 5% over the past week.

Do I believe in this commodity super cycle? Fuck no. It will drown and then die in a watery grave. Nonetheless, this is what the people want. Commodity related stocks are higher by 3.5% today, as the apes in top hats run around throwing shit at one another, pretending to be gentlemen, hedging against an inflation monster that does not exist.

  1. it is showtime

    How did I know 2100spy would be the close
    And the real quick obviously-purposed push
    in the last 60 seconds couldnt be more-obvious

    If you don’t think there’s a programming cabal
    running your markets in these multiweek
    *8week ***10week ******12week obviously-
    intraday-controlled up stages layoffthemacncheese

    Highly immensely controlled United States stock
    market where [ lol ] they are only pushing up P/Es
    [ lol ] It’s not the inherent strength of economy,
    earnings, growth. Just forced higher indexes that’s all

    And sadly for me, bankrupted companies do not magically unbankrupt themselves.

    Grandmother Yellen will awaken and crush your zombie commodity companies with her Hawkishness and strong USD balderdash

    Gartman will die. Who knows when, but for now, all he’s told us is that oil will most certainly not be between 32 and 42. Long oil vol.
