Gee, I don’t know – the Canadian dollar is about as sound a currency as you can get. The only disadvantage might be that it isn’t as large a money pool in absolute numbers as, say, the Euro or Yen. So it takes less incoming investor money to shoot the value up than it does for such bloated currencies as the Yen and USD. As for fiscal fundamentals though, it’s on way more solid footing than the USD.

Keeping oil prices high ensures the economies prices stay inflated which is a good thing since debt is so prevalent, because as you say oil is used in everything – unfortauntely even fertiliser which effects food prices. As for silver, it was China vacuuming up all the precious metals to spend it’s huge money reserves didn’t help, now China’s econony has overheated and the dollar losing value by the day the price of silver is going to fall in value slightly, it will then rebound massively when more investors work out that no currency is safe in this world anymore.

GaryH,

thanks for mentioning that, it’s not at all left field but a great example of how commodities do affect more mundane aspects of living. I was just reading an article on how the new prices in oil don’t just affect gas prices, but all sorts of things from toothpaste to anything else that uses petroleum to make it (alot of plastics, etc.).

OK this may sound a little left of field but I own a jewellery shop and the price of raw material has had a big impact on the price of the jewellery I sell.
It’s just a little shop and the strategy behind doing it was to sell stuff at the lower price bracket part of the market. Due to the increase in prices of raw material my sales have fallen probably by about 30% because my jewellery is no longer as cheap as it used to be. Why am I telling you?, because its a good exmaple of how the increased price in comodities has a direct impact on trading for the ‘little guy’
Just thought I’d share that with you.
