I have found two commodity funds, The Oppenheimer Real Asset Fund and the PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund.

I have a small position in the Oppenheimer fund QRACX.

I have no idea if these funds are going to perform better or worse than the CRB.

Tommaso - Glad you enjoy P&BM! Jim Rogers has been pounding the table on commodities for a while now. To my knowledge, there are no mutual funds for commodities. Rogers runs an index fund but when asked he would not discuss it when he spoke in NYC yesterday. He said to send e-mail. He suggests simply buying commodities futures, but gave frustratingly little detail to the uninitiated (me).
