Opinion on  PowerShares DB Agriculture Fund (DBA)
Farm commodities good in any market

Farm commodities are trading at big discounts to gold, and this has been a regular theme since the 1980s. So long term, farm commodities should do quite well vs. just about everything that doesn't pay a large dividend. Short term, farm commodities have halved while oil has doubled, and gold has held steady. If the stock market continues to rally, expect farm futures to do the best. If the stock market tanks, expect farm commodities to lose less than the markets.
