well i think he is only saying that the unleveraged futures are a better way to play. you don't have to worry about currencies or company specific problems such as hedging or selling forward or any other kind of snafus. if you hold the futures and the commodity moves, you are going to make money. if you happen to pick the wrong stock, maybe you won't make out as well. i don't think he is suggesting that there won't be good money to be made on natural resource stocks, especially if you do the work and pick the right ones.

What should investors buy right now?
Globalization is coming, but that doesn't mean people will buy only today's
global brands, which are the darlings of Wall Street investors like Warren Buffet.
Coke, Sony and Citigroup will be around but there will be other competitors,
mainly Chinese. I'm bullish on natural-resources stocks. Over the medium term,
there will be shortages, which will do wonders to [stock and commodity] prices.
