Commodities, Cap and Trade and Natural Gas

In order to support the "cap & trade" one first must be on board that there is really man made global warming.

Just because politicians say the debate is over about human caused global warming, does not mean that there is man made global warming

Many reputable scientists in the debate have been silenced, and if they dispute the existence of global warming they are labeled "heretics" and would lose there government funding and with it their careers.

We have made great progress in cleaning up the environment since the 1970's, and will continue to make progress as technology and the economy allows.

If we continue down this road of Chicken Little and "The Sky is Falling" mentality, the world economy as we know it will be a distant memory..

The Commodity Conundrum: Securitization and Systemic Concerns (Part III)

WOW, I have been heavily invested in ETF's (DBA,DBE,DBB,DBP) since February, to hold on to gains made in the stock market since 2001. Not so much to make money, but to protect against losses from inflation.

But, if what I read results in the loss of trust in the commodities markets, then maybe I should liquidate the ETF's for the time being and hold cash until this problem is resolved.

I would appreciate any advice from other readers as to what may be the best course of action at this time.
