    Wheat bubble...

    A long time ago in a land of make believe somewhere in the neverland once upon a time the greedy bankers came up with a way out of making themselves rich, and everyone else in the land poor, by creating a bubble in tech stocks... and then they did house prices... and then they did gold... and then they did wheat. The only bubble they did not do was bankers - of which there were too many and who should have been shot and thrown off a cliff...

  • You mark my words, bread will be a pound a loaf by Christmas.

    What do you mean it already is ? Well that's your status kit bread isn't it ?
    I'm still paying 37p at Aldi and Lidl but I seem to remember it was only 24p about 12 months ago.

    Unfortunatley that's made from flour as well !

    Hope it's not made of chocolate, as Cocoa has jumped 29 percent this year.

    Wheat futures only up 8% today !

    Let them eat nuts.

    They must be cheap as they're appearing in everything these days.Even forums !

    Well, you don't have to eat bread, or other wheat products, very often. Probably will do a lot of people some good (help in weight loss). :D
