Farm commodities good in any market Graphic_rating_buy DBA

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.

Still fairly priced with plenty of upside.  When times are bad, there are a few natural safe bases:  nesting things, tractors and food.  DBA is a pure food play.  If you think that we're going to have to change the way we eat because of cost, climate and population, then this has got to be a safe play.  I look for $40.

Until and unless the US drops the ridiculous corn based ethanol plans, the entire sector will be displaced to the upside.
