Commodities Boom Largely Due To Supply And Demand Imbalances Plus Inflation - by Puru Saxena

We are witnessing a generational bull-market in all types of natural resources (energy, food and metals). This boom in commodities is largely due to supply and demand imbalances plus the ongoing monetary inflation, which is adding fuel to the fire. Today, the various central banks continue to pump money and credit into the system and combined with the rising per-capita consumption levels in Asia and Latin America, you can begin to understand why the prices of commodities are at record-highs.

Inflation Causes Major World Currencies To Lose Up To 75% In Purchasing Power - by Puru Saxena

The major world currencies have lost between 25% and 75% of their purchasing power through inflation since 1980! For this system to work however, this solitary bear-market in "money" must remain concealed from the public for the fear that the masses may stop accepting these currencies as a medium of exchange.

Taking into account the course of action chosen by the various central banks, I am convinced that the various currencies will continue to depreciate in value against assets...


Oil Supply Struggling To Keep Up With Rising Global Demand - by Puru Saxena

Most people remain oblivious to the fact that the supply of oil is struggling to keep up with rising global demand. And when you factor in the reality that over 60% of the world's top oil-producing nations are already past their peak output, the picture starts to cause some alarm. Now, I am not saying that our world is going to run out of oil tomorrow. Far from it! However, the rate at which we pump this stuff out from the ground is likely to enter an irreversible decline...


China To Overtake United States As Economic Leaders - by Puru Saxena

Puru Saxena says the gap between developed and developing nations is narrowing and China is the country investors should back in its progress towards global economic leadership.

If my assessment is correct, China will replace the United States as the worlds single most important economy...


Geo-Political Disaster Around the Bend? - by Puru Saxena

Bearing in mind the recent developments in the Middle East, I suspect that a geo-political disaster is around the corner. I hope I am wrong, but it increasingly looks as though either Israel or the United States will attack Iran over its "nuclear program"....


Rising Markets and Commodities - by Puru Saxena

..Capital markets powered ahead in 2006. As expected, the big winners were the emerging stock markets led by Peru, Vietnam, Venezuela, China and Russia... Over in the commodities arena, several base metals (zinc, copper and nickel), precious metals (silver, palladium and gold) and grains appreciated significantly.So, how can we explain the simultaneous rise of so many uncorrelated markets?
