I agree, but what’s the point? Politicians are humans too (at least nominally), at least as prone as markets to overshoot equilibrium, operating in a far less transparent market, and their decisions are MUCH harder to reverse back to equilibrium. Give me the futures market, thanks.
And lest I be tarred a knee-jerk Republican, I generally vote Democratic, and I believe ideally in a role for sensible regulation. Unfortunately, most politicians aren’t sensible, and most regulators’ skill-sets are years behind the markets they regulate.

Aside from your ignorance and that you’re a total sissy, posting racist comments, anonymously, on a finance blog… You almost sound robotic, as your comments reflect that you have zero accountability.

Your brainwashed comment also reflects your weakmindedness, as you blame everyone but your own miserable self for your miserable disposition…In fact, I see this turning into, almost, a vicious cycle, as you post more ignorant comments, people will recognize and point out your ignorance more and more, making you even more angry and more ignorant.

So, good luck. You’re gonna need it. You ignorant asshat.

Obviously, the Fed induced commodity bubble is hurting Israel, now. That’s it. That’s all.

And basic behavioral finance theory tells us that humans are prone to move prices well in excess of equilibrium (from both directions), given that their role is one of agency (aka driven by job risk).
