Real Asset Daily
Dear Reader,
How'd you like to learn the secrets that separate the big players from the rest of the market?
I'm talking about the tools that allow market mavens like George Soros to pocket large sums of money in short periods of time. Well, I'm about to give them to you. Plain and simple.
In fact, over the course of the next four weeks I'm going to share with you a series of insights and observations I've accumulated in the last 10 years as an investment analyst in one of the least understood and most lucrative sectors of the stock market.
My name is Dan Ferris. I'm editor of a monthly publication called Real Asset Investor. And this month, through Stockscape, I'll be sending you a series of letters explaining why now is one of the greatest wealth building opportunities in years for investors like you.
In the first few days, we'll start with the fundamental reason why commodities, options, precious metals, and natural resources present exceptional opportunities for real asset investors. You'll find that the companies that produce these raw materials of civilization are some of the most well-kept secrets of the New Economy.
That's because they're considered 'Old Economy' companies. They make things like oil, steel, and cement. They deliver the energy that makes the world run. They provide the wheat, corn, copper, palladium, cocoa, and sugar that feed the world and keep industries running smoothly.
Later, as we move deeper into the names of the companies and our strategies for profiting from the near daily breakthroughs they're making with new technology, you'll find out exactly how and when to buy these stocks. And I'll share with you the methods that only the most experienced investors and traders us to profit from real assets.
So let's start with?
Secret #1
The big players on Wall Street make their biggest hauls by trading commodities and options.
Why? The answer is remarkably simple. But surprisingly few people ever learn how to use it properly to dramatically improve their portfolio returns.
The answer is leverage.
You see, every time the price of oil goes up one penny, you make $10?Every time the price of gold goes up one dollar, you make $10?Every time the price of cocoa goes up one dollar, you make $10?
Most stocks go up arithmetically. That means a $1 rise in the price is a $1 rise in the value of your investment. But many of the investments I'll be telling you about in the coming month rise exponentially.
It some cases it will be a traditional stock with double digit sales and earnings growth as a result of new technology, a sudden change in the political climate, or changes in government regulations. But whatever it happens to be, it almost always means more money for investors in these stocks.
Which translates to profits like 305% on cocoa?376% on crude oil?385% on gold.
And here's the sweet spot for investors like you -- over the next few weeks, I'm going to show you exactly what makes these gains possible. These trading secrets -- coupled with a few unbelievable opportunities, I'm going to let you in on -- could soon cause your bottom line wealth to surge upward.
Because you don't have to be an institutional investor or a world-renown market maven to pocket the kind of returns that leverage allows.
And your timing couldn't be any better?
I was just stopped out of my Long March and June Palladium positions, with a total net profit of 178% in about 5 months. The Russians are going to release export figures in less than 3 weeks, and said they'd ship their 'usual amounts.'
That tells me that an estimated 70%-80% of the world's palladium supply is probably safe from any further monkey business this year. The one caveat there is that the Russians haven't exactly been a reliable source of information about their own actions for some time, a situation that I have no reason to believe will change any time soon.
Still, I think it would be suicidal to stay long Palladium-an illiquid trader on its best days. It would be gambling, in fact. And I'd rather go to Vegas and play blackjack than wait for the Russians. If Palladium takes off again in 3 weeks when the Gokhran, the Russian state metals and stones reserve, releases export figures, I won't regret not being in the market. I'm out for now.
I'll fill you in on the rest of trades over the next few weeks. Some I wouldn't advise getting in on at this time, but some are, I believe, really great ideas, based on sound economics, and a market action that is confirming those economics almost daily.
But I'm getting a little ahead of myself here. Let's back up a second and run through some basics?
Commodities trading is different than stock trading in one very important way. Commodities are contracts that expire, like options. These aren't your grandmother's savings bonds... these puppies can explode for massive gains in a matter of days... or hours even!
And you can trade commodities on almost anything. From corn... to wheat... to electricity... even the Japanese yen...
It all boils down to this. If you think a commodity's price is going to go up -- you buy. If you think prices are going to go down -- you sell.
For instance, one corn contract could represent 50 bushels. If you buy a December contract. You're pledging to accept delivery of 50 bushels in December. When you sell the December contract you're pledging to deliver the 50 bushels in December...
Of course by December prices will have changed. If they've gone up... you've made money. Down... you've lost. Yes leverage goes both ways.
But as I've already explained, leverage allows the winners to more than make up for the inevitable losers.
While one corn contract controls about $10,750 worth of corn at today's prices, you only have to put down $405 in margin to trade one corn contract. So if the price of corn goes up 10 cents, your investment goes up $500, or 123%! It doesn't take a big move in corn prices to make a hefty profit
Tomorrow, I'll let you in on the single most important secret to commodities trading. And keep an eye out for my analysis and review of yesterday's market action. I like to watch a few specific indexes,
Stay tuned,
Dan Ferris Editor, Real Asset Investor
