What is the CRB index?- It tracks these commodity prices-

Aluminum, Cocoa, Coffee, Copper, Corn, Cotton, Crude Oil, Gold, Heating Oil, Lean Hogs, Live Cattle, Natural Gas, Nickel, Orange Juice, RBOB Gasoline, Silver, Soybeans, Sugar and Wheat

Historically the relationship between the US dollar and CRB index is one of inverse. Meaning when one goes up, the other goes down.

Since January, CRB index has risen 34%. That means the price of your goods like fuel and food have gone up generally in that range.

The dollar index is rapidly rising as the FED raises rates and cuts back QE (printing). This is a bid to slow inflation but as prices soar and continue to soar regardless of the dollars value against other currencies, it's too little too late.

What does this result in?

As the dollar increases against other currencies, the cost of commodities in those currencies moves up. Raw materials should move down in prices. However, that's not what is happening now. We are seeing an increase in prices as the dollar moves up. This is going to result in further increase in costs from sugar to copper.

The stock market is simultaneously sitting on a razors edge.
