Please click on spreadsheet to view and zoom in on reader if needed Energies The trend in recent weeks has been up and though we feel that it will continue we’re expecting a $3-5 set back in Crude oil in the immediate future. In the August contract we expect $79 to act as solid resistance, [...]

For August 10th– August 14th 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard It always amazes me how short-term investors’ memories are. There is chatter of improving U.S. and world economies, which we feel is way too premature. Corporations are reporting optimistic numbers but could that be because expectations were so low? We’ve [...]

For August 3rd– August 7th 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard Even after the recent market turmoil it appears investors still have an appetite for risk. Whether the risk taking is misguided is debatable, but the reality is if investors are more informed about the inherent risk they may be more comfortable taking [...]

For July 27th– July 31st 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard When I started working in commodities, almost a decade ago, they were considered a dirty word and certainly not a place for the average Joe to invest. Within the last few years, thanks to investors becoming more open minded, the overall performance [...]

For July 20th– July 24th 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard I communicate with investors daily trying to identify what their general position is for the economy. Though it differs from one to the next, an overwhelming majority are not too optimistic about the health of the economy. The overall sentiment is that few see [...]

For July 13th– July 17th 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard Speculators may be running for the exit doors on talks of more government involvement in the futures market, but I feel their exit may be premature seeing that the government is just talking at this point. Since the government has not screwed [...]

For July 6th– July 10th 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard With half of 2009 behind us investors may be wondering if they have enough exposure to commodities in their portfolios. Several commodities gained value in the first 6 months of the year on expectations for a global economic recovery and on [...]

For June 29th– July 3rd 2009 By: Matthew Bradbard At this point I’m not sure whether the global recovery has begun or this is just a head fake, who will win the tug of war between inflation and deflation, if Treasuries are the next bubble, if the buying from China is sustainable or when interest [...]
