Absolutely. CRB weekly cash has resolutely moved up a very narrow Andrews
Pitchfork channel and across a 4 year old monthly trendline. While momentum
has been declining a bit, the trend is clear and lacks the kind of parabolic
rise which would suggest anything more than a modest correction.

Also attached is a self explanatory chart showing a November peak in an
inflation gauge I track ... at some point these increases are going to be
reflected in retail prices.
