FAVORITE BULL MARKET


It's still a quiet bull market in the "contrarian's commodity investment."

Last year, we kept you updated on the steady uptrend in Jim Rogers' favorite commodity investment. It's an uptrend that goes unreported in the mainstream financial press... and one you can see below in the investment fund DBA. This fund is a one-click way to buy the agricultural commodities corn, soybeans, wheat, and sugar.

Why is DBA the contrarian's commodity idea? Well, commonly traded commodities like crude oil, gold, copper, and platinum have soared in the past year. Copper, for instance, is up 125% in the past 12 months. The ag complex, however, is in the "beaten down" category. But as you can see from today's chart, the DBA is quietly building a series of "higher highs and higher lows." It's classic bull-market action... action that will likely carry DBA to an upside breakout above June highs.

We've spent time thinking about how an investor can earn income from farmland – without going to Brazil or Iowa to buy 640 acres and a tractor. In tomorrow's Market Notes, we'll show you a way to collect 15%-20% annual yields on this idea.
