Hi there

Vis a vis longterm investment.....

I notice that whilst hard commodities, and just about everything, have had something of a recoup in price after their fall, agri commodities exemplified by say DBA have yet to do so.

My question is:

1 Why?

2 Will new technologies keep the price of grains etc down

3 DBA seems a passive, futures based, instrument. If the answers to 1 and 2 do not preclude an investment, why not invest in representative companies which benefit from also being actively productive? If so which?

cheers John

That's because stocks like DBA, USO and UNG are derivative based scams. They are intended to be "buy and hold" losing investments. :)

You would be better off by buying into the companies that produce the actual commodities themselves.
