Are we in a commodities and energy stock bubble? Any comment? My energy stock really went up (one of them jumped three fold recently). I didn’t choose them. My adviser told me I should allocate some money into that sector.
I remember during the housing bubble, everyone told me there was a limited amount of land plus the nice weather in South Florida. House price will go up and up since there will be always a demand. Now crashed, everyone says it is because of overbuilt.
Now everyone blames China for commodities and energy price. There is a short supply and get ready for a higher price. On the other hand, I also read somewhere there is no short supply. I don’t understand. Is it caused by all those super rich investors who influence the markets since there is no where to play their money now? Or it is really a supply and demand issue?
Personally, I wish it is just a bubble. Hopefully, it will burst soon. Any thought?
From a macroeconomic standpoint, increasing global demand for energy isn't going anywhere but up from here. Yes, it commodities are quite volatile (look at where oil is today vs. last week) and the recent price drop has hurt the energy stocks I'm invested in, but I continue to ride it the ups and downs and bring in a good return on my investment. The dollar still has a long way to recover before I get back into other market sectors. Until this country regains some fiscal discipline (government and consumers), I know my money is better served in hard assets, commodities, and energy.
This just in. I'm up over 20% YTD. FSNGX is kicking tail. Everyone here should have a strong position in oil/natural gas stocks. This is looking like a good year.

I'm up 20% in the last three days, 75% YTD. Uranium mining stocks have hit bottom and are starting to rebound. I'm looking to have a very good year on these investments.
!00-200% or more is not out of reach if you are in the right stocks early.
Check them out but choose carefully.
I am following some of what Jim Rogers preaches. I am (slowly) getting out of the dollar. Looking much more in China and India. Learning about commodities.
Just saving up for a condo when I move out in 2011. I have 4k in a 2050 retirement fund which isn't doing good but I don't really care because I'll be selling those funds in 40 years or so.
How old are you? sounds like you are doing great!!!
My DH and I just make sure we are completely debt free. try to keep all the cash we can in the account making 6% and then forget about the money we have in our diversified funds. may not be in the best places but havent lost any money yet.

That's awesome!
I wonder how many of the junior mining companies are going to do now that gold's value is unable to be suppressed much longer.
