Product Description

Product Description

Praise for Commodity Fundamentals

"Commodity Fundamentals is THE book for investors looking to enter the commodity markets. This informative guide is a welcome addition on the subject and is a must–read for commodity investors."
–Jim Atkinson, President, Guinness Atkinson Funds

"Ronald Spurga′s Commodity Fundamentals is an illuminating and very useful guide for the subject. A welcome addition to any business library."
–Robert F. Himmelberg, PhD, Dean, Fordham′s Graduate School of Business Administration

"A straightforward introduction crafted for the individual on the mechanics of commodity trading. The author efficiently negotiates the often confusing yet very topical commodity trading world for the individual."
–Terence A. Mullervy, Finance Director, Glencore UK Ltd.

Commodity Fundamentals provides you with the in–depth insights needed to make commodities trading a profitable, integral component of your overall trading activities. Written by Ronald Spurga, a Vice President of ABN AMRO Bank and longtime veteran of the investment banking wars, this straightforward guide arms you with the information you need to succeed in the highly profitable commodity marketplace–whether you are a trading veteran, a relative newcomer, or anywhere in between.


From the Inside Flap

Profitable commodities trading is now within reach of virtually every market–savvy investor. Why the recent change?

Erratic supplies of oil and other essential commodities, coupled with skyrocketing demand from China, India, and other rapidly developing countries and economies, have laid the groundwork for a long–term uptrend in the global commodities market. At the same time, the collapse of historic trading barriers has made it more possible than ever for traders of every size and style to reap regular profits from the accessible and untapped commodity trading market.

Commodity Fundamentals provides you with the knowledge and information you need to make consistent commodities trading a profitable, integral component of your overall trading activities. Written by Ronald Spurga, a Vice President of ABN AMRO Bank, bestselling finance author, and longtime veteran of the investment banking wars, this straightforward, step–by–step guidebook features:

  • Supply/demand information for nearly two–dozen physical commodities in the precious metals, energy, grains, meats, and tropical commodity markets
  • Detailed overviews and trading strategies for everything from gold and palladium to crude oil, natural gas, coffee, cattle, and other trader favorites
  • Trading techniques that have proven uniquely powerful when applied to the commodities markets, including spread trades, cash and carry trades, and others
  • In–depth chapters that describe the diversification, risks, and rewards possible through increasingly popular commodity funds
  • Addresses, release dates, costs (where applicable), and more for updated and essential reports covering every important commodity

What is a futures contract? What are the major commodity exchanges, and where are they located? What are the differences between hedging and speculating? Commodity Fundamentals answers these questions and dozens more, all in a concise, no–nonsense style that is short on fluff and long on the actionable advice you need to compete and win in the global commodities marketplace.

Do you have what it takes to become a risk–conscious yet aggressive commodity speculator? As equities markets flounder and fixed income markets struggle to outpace inflation, the profit potential available in trading precious metals, energy, grains, and tropical commodities is becoming impossible to ignore. Let Commodity Fundamentals arm you with the up–to–the–minute information you need to trade in the historically profitable commodity marketplace—whether you are a trading veteran, a relative newcomer, or anywhere in between.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book just fails to, 13 Aug 2007
By P. J. Hill-king "Suss the game" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
instill real understanding - the "how to trade" was just a few superficial examples, without even basic pricing formula. The descriptions of each commodity were so basic I was surprised, and much of the detail at least 20 years old and probably out of date. A beginner would be little the wiser fom reading this book and not in much of a position to trade with his own cash. I left the book on the train when I got off.....
