[efoods]There goes oil, surging past $80-a-barrel. That’s up 150 percent from the December low, in case you’re keeping score.
Gasoline? Wholesale prices are up more than 40 cents a gallon in just under a month …
Heating oil? Grab an extra blanket! It just jumped to the highest price in almost a year …
Corn? It’s up almost a buck a bushel since mid-September …
Wheat? Rising. Soybeans? Yep. Sugar? Near a 26-year high. And I hope you’re not planning on eating too much chocolate this Halloween. Replacing it will cost a lot more considering cocoa futures just soared to the highest level in almost three decades.
