WHY COMMODITY MARKETS ARE SO IMPORTANT
The commodity markets are incredibly important as they really drive commerce and the economy. Think of the role that commodities play in our everyday lives, they affect the cost of what we eat, what we buy and how we drive to and from work. In today's show, we will be looking at the major trends in all of the major commodity markets.
THE WORLD CUP PORTFOLIO
Five years ago, we began the World Cup portfolio using core commodity markets. Five of the six components that make up the World Cup portfolio are pure commodity plays-wheat, corn, soybeans, gold and crude oil. The sixth element is the Dollar Index.

David Baker's Three Must-Haves for the New Generation of Gold Companies: Accountability, Accountability and Accountability
The Gold Report: The major gold producers have ceded market share to gold exchange-traded funds and royalty companies and are vastly underperforming those investment vehicles. If you were running a major gold producer, how would you go about restoring the appeal of your company's shares?
David Baker: Mining companies need to restore trust and give more clarity. They are confusing investors because on the one hand they tell us they have so many ounces of gold in reserves and are producing so many ounces of gold, and then they confuse us by benchmarking all this to dollarsa depreciating asset. We believe the mining companies should be consistent and report in gold; this would then give investors a clearer picture on how much gold it is costing to mine the resource and how many ounces of gold are added to the shareholder vault.

CARL ICHAN VS BILL ACKMAN, NOW IT'S PERSONAL
One of the biggest mistakes you can make in trading is getting personal with the market. That is why it's amazing to me to see Carl Ichan and Bill Ackman act like two school kids with this very public fight over HERBALIFE. The one-on-one animosity and hatred they have for each other is now in the public arena. Basically, they both want to win on HERBALIFE and the reality is it's going to cost one of their hedge fund clients a lot of money. After the close in after hours trading, Carl Ichan announced that he had purchased 14 million shares, effectively giving him a 12.98 percent stake in HERBALIFE. This was enough to push shares of HERBALIFE up 20% in after hours trading. Continue reading "Today's Video Newsletter: Now it's getting personal - and what's going on in GOLD!"
