    <p>Cocoa, the raw ingredient used to make chocolate, has been on an incredible price run, doubling in value since the start of 2024 and up over 250% since late last year. So far, the commodity is garnering better returns than <a rel="dofollow" title="Bitcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin.html">Bitcoin</a> — and most stocks and bonds, for that matter.</p> 
    <p>The bitter seed has seen a massive surge in price after crops were damaged in West Africa and it found its supply chain strained. Meanwhile, chocolate bar manufacturers have been <strong>earning fantastic profits while simultaneously selling fewer products</strong>, suggesting that companies are helping to keep inflation high, and passing along what is otherwise known as price gouging to retail customers.</p>

    <p>Of course, a commodity shooting up in value tends to get compared to <a rel="dofollow" title="Bitcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/bitcoin.html">Bitcoin</a> simply due to price action. In 2021, the price of lumber went through the roof, mainly due to a combination of new construction projects during and post-COVID-19 and a supply chain strain.</p> 
    <p>The price action caused the criminal CEO Sam Bankman-Fried to <strong>list a tokenized lumber futures market on the now-defunct FTX</strong>.</p> 
    <p>After the wild run in 2021, lumber prices have come back to Earth, down over 60% since all-time highs.</p> 
    <p>However, other commodities have been on price tears recently, with gold finally cracking and maintaining all-time highs that have hardly been touched since 2011. Uranium also hit highs not seen since 2007, and orange juice has seen prices go up only since 2021.</p>
