1 Year Later – Putting things into Perspective
March 10, 2010
By: Matthew Bradbard
There has been so much fuss of late on the great performance in equities over the past year so we thought it would be interesting to put the indices head to head with the major commodities that we trade. Find the table below that shows the closing price on March 9, 2009 compared to the closing price of March 9, 2010. We use this date because that is the date the major US indices bottomed.
I find it comical that so many investors are ignoring the multiple long/short opportunities in commodities. I’ve seen commodities in my 10-yr career gain respect from the common investor but still too many traders fail to implement commodities into their portfolios.
Keep up to date on our daily blogs and weekly commentaries to see what commodities we are recommending selling and what commodities we are recommending buying.
