Global Depression fears rise as people stock up on rice.

[21pro]

breaking news this morning:

rice prices have been skyrocketing.

sam's club limiting rice purchases
wal-mart increasing rice prices
costco asked customers not to purchase more than 1 pkg of rice

what i saw at costco in brampton today:

DUE TO THE CURRENT RICE SHORTAGE WE REQUEST THAT YOU LIMIT YOUR RICE PURCHASE TO YOUR NORMAL SHOPPING HABITS.

my late grandfather said that the 1st thing that went up in price before the great depression was the price of rice. he said that when times get rough, watch out for that indicator.

didn't follow his advice 'cause i just invested $45k in liquidation world at $2.60 today.

Spike in food prices in '08 driven up by black market, speculation & demand for biofuel. Indian & Egypt ban export of rice due to rise in demand.

US depression fear not really on radar of Africa, poor Latin & Asian countries. Rising prices in wheat, corn, etc triggering price jump in substitute food. Black market learned it's more profitable & easy to traffic food.
