There's been a big debate about whether prices spiked because of real factors like drought or because of financial manipulation. Steve Evans talks to Michael Masters who is a mover of money based on the low-tax, high-sun island of St Croix in the Caribbean, from where he runs his company, Masters Capital Management. He thinks he's identified the flows of money, particularly with the buying of oil. With financial markets, it's often not about buying goods for actual delivery but simply as an asset to be resold later. And can Africa give the rich West a business lesson? Our regular commentator, Wycliffe Muga in Mombassa, notes that Kenyan banks have had a habit of failing and getting rescued at tax-payer expense, then recovering their health.
