CRB Index has just reached a two year high and the trend is poised to continue longer term unless quickly turns down. We have a weekly chart above that indicates a potential target for the bullish run in the 320 - 340 area during the next several months. The trend is supported by the weakening dollar and by the Fed efforts to fight deflation through inducing inflation expectations via commodities.
