Please describe the Weak Signal (approx. 150 words)
Basic production of agriculture may become globally very profitable business if we face a few years of crop failures. Furthermore, if a credit crunch takes place at the same time, the prices of grain, raw materials and oil will probebly go up in the markets in the same way as they did during the previous credit crunch. Tangible goods maintain their value.
