Managing Duration for Commodity Funds: Which Strategy Is Best? [view article]
Very short of any information of real use.If someone invests in ETF's without knowing about the funds management style, then they have not done due diligence and deserve the consequences. Reply

Is this a buy or a sell? ReplyBurst Bubble? Commodities' Long-Term Story Remains Intact [view article]
Once upon a time, long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away gold, silver and copper circulated freely amongst the populous as money. Today we are force FED limitless multi-colored paper and base metal tokens via legal tender laws. The greenback is no longer as good as gold in fact its no longer even green. What's about to take place is now all but inevitable and those that fail to realize it before its too late will face financial ruin. The actions of the FED are obviously just smoke and will lead to the greatest bull market in precious metals, in dollar terms, in the history of mankind and the destruction of the dollar. Bubble? Mania? History dictates that this blow off will ultimately make the internet stock mania and the housing bubble look like small potatoes. THERE'S NO RUSH LIKE A GOLD RUSH!!!!!!!!! Bet on it. You'll be glad you did. ReplyBurst Bubble? Commodities' Long-Term Story Remains Intact [view article]
The big picture says equities bottomed last week and will be the "flavor of the month" until March 2009. Commodities will become range bound and gold will always have its following or "groupies". An intersting view (or model) is that of Martin Armstrongs back in the 1980's.Reply

The one sentence that is absolutely true:"I don’t know where the story goes next from here."
The most detailed analysis may indicate the most general of trends, but bottoms? tops? futures?
All of history can not tell the story of today nor foretell tomorrow. Reply

The commodities market experienced a similar correction in June 2006. During that time, Goldman flooded the market with $6 billion worth oil futures (i.e. paper oil), pushing down the oil price from $70/barrel to $48/barrel. ReplyBurst Bubble?

what a joke for analysis...."the market has already tested me many times and I can’t profess to have bought every time at that bottom. I have regretted it every time."Duh! Who wouldn't always regret not buying at the bottom?
Let's pick up our analytic game: is this the bottom, that's the real point to be addressed. Reply

James,Thank you, I agree, but $60 for USO is a long way off. In the meanwhile, I will buy OIH puts. Reply

I agree with topak: "It's the hedge funds, unfortunately, driving the volatility. SEC needs to undo what it did last summer -- put back uptick rules; reinstate legislation that controls the hedge funds so they cannot bankrupt normal investors>" Everyone here should write the SEC a letter to this end.

Answer to User 42142 as of Mar 21, 11:50 AM with is question “If one uses these replies as a contrarian guide, what would one do?”A contrarian is not always a contrarian. He follows the crowd for long periods and lets the profits run. Only before major turning points does he become a contrarian. For example when gold reaches the manic phase at around $15,000 to $20,000 and having the DOW also around $20,000 as an assumption, then he will start selling whilst most everybody else expects that gold goes to $ 30,000 or even $ 100,000.
This is not a time to stop following the early adopters of gold and the crowd that will soon come in. Yes, there is deleveraging. A lower money supply means recession a much lower money supply means depression. The Fed will stem this tide. If it doesn’t succeed, the US empire is over, done, toast. The Fed will buy, if necessary, your mortgages, your houses and your dogs and cats. He has that power. There are several executive orders in the #12,000 to #13,000 range where this power was given to the Fed shortly before Y2K (year 2000 date computer problem).
Whoever thinks that the Fed will be powerless after having reduced interest rates to 0.25% which I expect that it will do, is mistaken. In “open market operations” it can theoretically buy up each and every asset in the US and flood the country with dollars. Bernancke will not only use helicopters but also railroads to get the money to a rail station near you.
So, the smart action would be to use this pullback in gold to buy it, now. Next, I would buy down oil USO (UNITED STATES OIL FUND, LP (AMEX)) with buy-limits set at $75, 70, 65, 60. Later, when the dust has settled, I plan to buy the foods, DBA or RJA.
