JPMorgan Strategist John Normand Comments on Commodity Prices 2006-09-14 10:22 (New York) By Julie Tay Sept. 14 (Bloomberg) -- John Normand, JPMorgan's global currency, commodity and fixed-income strategist in London, comments on commodity prices. He was speaking at a London seminar today organized by GFMS Metals Consulting. Commodities are dropping because of slower growth in some of the world's largest economies. The Reuters/Jefferies CRB Futures Price Index has fallen 15 percent from a record reached in May. On commodities price cycle: ``There is another five to 10 years in it. Commodities are being accepted as an asset class. ``Investment flows are supported by reasonably robust physical demand. Investment flows amplify upturns as well as downturns in the commodities market. ``The bubble criteria is met in energy, but not in other commodities.'' --Editor: Griffith
