Q: What is it that the Canadians and Norwegians have that is super valuable during #InflationAccelerating in Global #Quad2? A: Not Janet Yellen’s inflation narrative!

Let’s add a D) Lean Hog prices (bacon, Janet, think bacon) inflated another +3.7% last week taking their 1 and 3 month inflations to +7.7% and +25.5%, respectively. I know, I know.
