The CRB - Jefferies commodites composite will enter 2011 with a cycle bull market intact.
It could even receive an extra kick in Q1 '11 if winter weather in the northern hemisphere

strong discipline when it gets at a sharp premium to the 40 week m/a, as it is now. It will
be instructive to see how well the discipline holds up near term. $CRB chart.
I have ended full text posting. Instead, I post investment and related notes in brief, cryptic form. The notes are not intended as advice, but are just notes to myself.
