The next bull market is here. It’s not in stocks. It’s not in bonds. It’s in commodities –and some smart investors will be riding that bull to record returns in the next decade.
Before Jim Rogers hit the road to write his bestselling books Investment Biker and Adventure Capitalist, he was one of the world’s most successful investors. He cofounded the Quantum Fund and made so much money that he never needed to work again. Yet despite his success, Rogers has never written a book of practical investment advice–until now.
In Hot Commodities, Rogers offers the lowdown on the most lucrative markets for today and tomorrow. In 1998, gliding under the radar, a bull market in commodities began. Rogers thinks it’s going to continue for at least fifteen years–and he’s put his money where his mouth is: In 1998, he started his own commodities index fund. It’s up 165% since then, with more than $200 million invested, and it’s the single-best performing index fund in the world in any asset class. Less risky than stocks and less sluggish than bonds,, commodities are where the money is–and will be in the years ahead. Rogers’s strategies are simple and straightforward. You can start small–a few thousand dollars will suffice. It’s all about putting your money into stuff you understand, the basic materials of everyday life, like coal, sugar, cotton, corn, or crude oil. Once you recognize the cyclical and historical trading patterns outlined here, you’ll be on your way.
In language that is both colorful and accessible, but Rogers explains why the world of commodity investing can be one of the simplest of all–and how commodities are the bases by which investors can value companies, markets, and whole economies. To be a truly great investor is to know something about commodities.
For small investors and high rollers alike, Hot Commodities is as good as gold . . . or lead, or aluminum, which are some of the commodities Rogers says could be as rewarding for investors.
这本书出版于2005年9月份,可能罗杰斯自己都没有想到,在他提醒投资者从股票和债券市场中走出来,关注商品上涨机会时,未来8年,商品经历了什么样的过山车行情。05-08年,商品狂暴上涨,从金融危机到现在,商品是否已经或者正在由牛市转向熊市,拐点是将要到来还是已经过去...
评分这本书无意间翻了一章,介绍期货的。比我们当年的期货教材有意思多了 等有时间时,一定要听着JAZZ来看,就象欣赏一台热闹的歌舞表演。
评分以前见过很多期货投资方面的高手,都有自己对市场的理解和判断,而且都很独到,可是读了这本书之后,才知道真正的大师对市场深度和广度更深刻的理解.眼光远大和辽阔. 真的是站得越高才能看得越远.
评分1. 没想到罗杰斯给中国市场那么高的定位,整个石油部分需求角度几乎完全是从中国市场需求出发。 05年角度看,石油堪忧;不知有了更多(部分功能)可替代资源后,油价还会重现前期高点吗(111美元)(2018年9月视角)? 2. 作为索罗斯的好搭档,罗杰斯似乎也是“宏观派”,他的...
