Von der hinteren Coverseite

Over the last few years, commodities have grown in popularity and gained a considerable amount of momentum along the way. On one end of the spectrum, agricultural commodities have roared to new highs and on the other end, metal and energy prices have rallied from their most recent lows. Even commodity markets that have struggled over the past year have quickly turned around in the midst of increased demand.

Commodities have become a powerful and profitable asset class, but many investors still lack a basic understanding of the commodity markets. While they might know about these markets in a general sense, they don’t really know how the commodity market functions and what factors are instrumental in determining futures prices. That’s why industry expert Emanuel Balarie has written Commodities for Every Portfolio.

Filled with in-depth insights and practical advice, this accessible guide will provide you with important information and convincing reasons for why―and how―you should participate in the long-term commodity boom. Whether you’re an experienced commodity trader or simply looking for a better understanding of these markets, Commodities for Every Portfolio will help you discover how this undervalued and underrepresented asset class can not only provide you with profitable investment opportunities, but also balance out your portfolio.

Divided into three comprehensive parts, Commodities for Every Portfolio:

• Establishes a solid foundation for how commodity markets work
• Identifies the various investment vehicles that you can use to participate in this market―including futures, stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs
• Outlines different strategies you can use to profit from this commodity bull market
• And much more

Taking the time to learn about the commodity markets―and their inherent advantages―today can help you position your portfolio to profit from moves that will occur tomorrow. Whether you want to participate in the leverage that commodity futures can offer your portfolio, whether you want to have a hedge against inflation and a declining stock market environment, or whether you simply want to add a diversifying asset to your stock and bond portfolio, Commodities for Every Portfolio is the book you need to achieve success in your investment endeavors.
