THE SECRETS TO CAPITALIZING ON THE COMMODITIES BOOM

In the mid-1970s, when Bob Greer scrolled through miles of microfilm in the basement of a public library in order to record commodity prices in his yellow legal pad, the idea of commodities being an investable asset class was way outside the mainstream. Now, it's a multibilliondollar vehicle for achieving portfolio diversification and inflation hedging--and he and his colleagues have written the book on earning better returns than the indexes themselves

In Intelligent Commodity Indexing, Bob joins his fellow leaders of PIMCO's Commodity Practice, Nic Johnson and Mihir Worah, in opening up commodity indexes. Never before has there been a more thorough explanation of how a commodity index works coupled with a powerful set of strategies for making it work for you. Inside, you'll find the most up-to-date tools and time-proven best practices for earning "structural alpha" by capitalizing on recurring risk and liquidity premiums in the commodities markets. It offers the right amount of history and theory to reinforce cuttingedge techniques for:

  • Interpreting how seasonal effects change risk premia
  • Choosing the most profitable market for specific commodity exposure
  • Using intelligent commodity indexing to collect risk premiums in the options market
  • Maximizing roll yield in order to increase long-term returns
  • Managing risk, including specific frameworks and systems

Investors gain a superior advantage with this book's coverage of the nuts-and-bolts workings of various markets.

Beautiful tie at a great price!
I did receive this set via the Vine program, and my thanks to the manufacturer/seller and Amazon for providing it! I used to be a "Nothing but silk for my neckties" type, but this tie as "just" polyester is every bit as good, and much cheaper. The fabric is so nice that nobody could tell it isn't silk, and the stripes aren't just a simple one-color pattern, but a couple of different colors to add a little more oomph. And the price is more than right: you could pay two or three times this price at a department store.

Sleek, professional look, goes well with blue and grey stuff! Probably dark suits too.
I might not like wearing ties (I do not), but sometimes, I get roped into having to go somewhere and slip on a tie... I really try to keep ye ole wardrobe very simplistic. Grey and a blue blazer. I have a couple of "fancy" suits, but I try to avoid wearing them... Then, when I do, I want them to look sharp, and a nice tie will help to bring it all together as they say! This is a very sharp looking tie, and it blends in great with my grey and blue outfits. Sure it is a tie, but being that it looks so sharp, and just perfectly matches the outfits? I love it. Five Stars!
