Seeking Alpha
- 2009-11-25

Seeking Alpha
- 2009-11-12
A window-dressing by the Longs or investor redemptions after 8 months of historic rally?

The CRB Index Is About to Break Out in Non-USD Terms
Seeking Alpha
- 2009-10-20
An increase in the CRB index is not so surprising considering the rather steady decline of USD over the last few months. More interestingly though, let us look at how its is performing across a range of commodities. Were you aware that the CRB index had also reached multi-week highs...

James Quinn submits: This article originally appeared in the July, 2009 edition of the Casey Report. In 2008, prices of oil, natural gas, gold, silver, copper, corn, wheat, and most other commodities reached multi-year, and in some cases multi-decade, highs.
