About commodities

I am a firm believer that all commodities rise and decline in perfect synchronism. If you follow what is happening now you will recognize the truth of this observation. The weather, OPEC, wars are "noise" when you look at the big picture. What drives commodities is the global business cycle.

The lesson is that the odds are against you if you go long a particular commodity when most of them are declining. Especially in a weak economic environment.
