This is the right time to get involved in commodities again. The commodities lost all their lustre in October 2008, but they are now ready to make their move on the upside.

October proved to be a washout for commodities, as crude oil posted its worst one-month loss in history, the U.S. economy spiraled toward recession and traders scrambled to deleverage positions.

Light, sweet crude oil for December delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange lost 33% of its value in October. It managed to stage a late rally Friday to settle up $1.85 at $67.81 a barrel.

The Dow Jones-AIG Commodity Index, a basket of 19 commodities, fell 21.34% in October and was down 28.65% for the year. Buy the future, sell the calls and buy the protective futures.. Look for commodities mainly the ‘softs’ that are showing signs of commercial accumulation and are depressed in price.

Things that look most awful from news media are the best buys.

Commodity arbitraging can provide in excess of 100% profit per year in your retirement funds. It is far better than holding stocks for the long term hoping everything will look green all the time.
