The funding banks and different retailers of self-fulfilling prophecies began speaking a few potential super-cycle of commodities again in late 2020. It was form of enjoyable on the time – pent-up demand and underinvestment in industries may actually induced a sequence response (though it isn’t clear to say so loudly that it’s a defenitely supercycle).
