CRB Commodities Index -- On Fed's Monitor List

CRB Commods: 293.9

Q1 seasonal commodities price spikes in '03, '04 and a big one in '05 have contributed significantly to the acceleration of inflation. In this link you will see that the CRB is trending down fast. A further decline below the pivot line of 282-283 would tell the Fed that inflation pressure may well abate noticeably going forward.
