i'm sorry but all the commodities, soft , hard, metals, have also fallen since the USD decided to strengthen.
But are they cheaper for the rest of the world spikes aside - NO !
When the USD decides to weaken all these commodities will go up again.
For the rest of the world, with more stable currencies, these commodities are not moving in price and that's a truer indication.
I think the time to ditch the USD as the standard currency for commodities in favour for another currency - given this instability and the parlous state of the US economy - is probably fast approaching.
