Inflation? Huh? ... Sometimes Pictures Make People Accountable

Since I left Wall Street at the end of October, I have had a lot of people tell me I was out to lunch with my inflation call. Finally, inflation is a consensus concept. Now, I'm looking for signals that may time the process of a top.

For the sake of accountability, I have attached a chart of the CRB Commodities Index since that snapshot in time. From October of 2007 to last week's all time high of 464, this index of 19 commodities is up +45%.

Facts can be stubborn things, indeed.
