Nowadays, fund managers are pouring billions of dollars into commodities such as crude oil, wheat, base metals, Gold Bullion and silver as a hedge against the explosive growth of the world's money supply, competitive currency devaluations, and the negative interest rates engineered by central banks. To the chagrin of central bankers, however, much of the new money pumped into the global markets is going into commodities instead of the stock market.
While being only one of millions of worldwide consumers, I find this "revelation" to be only the tip of a "black iceberg" in the "truth" behind oil manipulation. Taking two steps backward, while attempting to move forward in dealing with energy problems is a classic gambit in the futile attempts to remedy the 24/7 reported oil price surge? Can the "media" be partially to blame ...
Should individuals seek to "hedge" their energy costs by investing in commodities ... to the detriment of their neighbors? Is it "every man/every woman" (PC) for "themselves?"
(Cue: "Snake Oil" investment/commodities pitchmen/pitchwomen (PC) to the media resources ... STAT!)
