      Any commodity reccomendations for a novice 401k investor with the following:

      45.73% BROKERAGELINK $76,277.67 = 55k BRK.B & 21k cash

      29.98% FIDELITY RETIRE MMKT $50,008.54

      16.51% DODGE & COX INCOME $27,533.32

      0.65% VANG INST TOT STK MK $1,090.64

      0.65% VANG MIDCAP IDX INST $1,090.48

      0.65% VANG LG CAP EQ INDEX $1,080.36

      I jumped out of a lot of funds and positions just after the first of the year and feel lucky as portfolio is only down appox 1.5% ytd. I know I need to diversify and would like to start by getting into commodities. What % of portfolio? Which commodities? Any other commodities advice would be great. I know this is off topic, but I looked for a forum on this site ..couldn't find one so decided to post here. If anyone can direct me to forums, newsletters, sites etc.; then please advise. Thank you.
