CRB Index can predict inflation and deflation?

by David Phillips
(Commodity Trading today)

CRB index or indicator was born in 1957, and seems to have accurately predicted the soaring inflation and deflation cycles each and sin.

Adam Hewison's book of INO.com uses CRB Index as its main indicator of cyclical trends lead to large. If you're thinking of investing in commodities or commodity related stocks that index should watch this very carefully.

A look back at the data shows that in the last half century, the CRB index showed some significant moves both upward and more recently the disadvantage.

I agree with Adam that this is probably the indicator that traders should keep an eye on.

If you are someone who trades stock or commodity futures and are eager to better understand the trends of world trade, then this is the indicator to watch.

After the tenth revision of the index, has been renamed Reuters Jefferies CRB Index (NYBOT_CR).
