There Are Always Correction, Nothing Goes Straight Up

There are always corrections — nothing goes straight up. So, there’s nothing unusual about corrections. You can go back to any bull market and you’ll see there’s a range between the high and low for any stock during the bull market. There’s about a 40 percent range between the top and the bottom.

The Dynamics Of A Bull Market

I’ve been trying to explain to people for a long time what’s going on, but for some reason nobody listens.

Normally at this stage of the commodity bull market you would expect new capacity to be coming on stream. The problem of course is that in 2008 and 2009 everybody got hit. So, many of the people who were thinking about adding capacity have pulled back, cancelled, delayed, rescheduled, etc. Fortunately or unfortunately, the supply side of the equation seems to be getting worse not better.

Previous bull markets in commodities have lasted 15 or 20 years. This one’s going to last at least that long if not longer.

Commodities: Is A Correction Coming?

I have no idea. Cotton has gone up very far, very fast; but, given it was down for thirty years you might not think it’s gone up so much on any kind of compounded rate.

There are always corrections — nothing goes straight up. So, there’s nothing unusual about corrections. You can go back to any bull market and you’ll see there’s a range between the high and low for any stock during the bull market. There’s about a 40% range between the top and the bottom. That’s the same for commodities.

I have no idea when or what will cause the corrections, but I sure know they’re coming. They always have and they always will.

Japan Disaster: Its Going To Increase Demand For Many Commodities

Yes, this is going to increase demand for many commodities. This is the new source of demand for copper and lead and things that nobody expected of new demand coming out of Japan, now there is a lot of new demand coming out of Japan. If the rest of the world goes into an economic slowdown because of this, then governments around the world are going to print even more money, that is the wrong thing to do but that is what they will do and whenever they print money, it is good for real asset, commodities. - in Economic Times

Japan`s Disaster And How It Impacts Commodities

"No, it will increase demand because with the nuclear power plants being closed down or damaged or under duress, Japan will have to import more oil, everybody in the world will now look at their nuclear power plants again and probably have more demand for oil and natural gas. Japan is now going to rebuild, that is going to cause big increases in demand for copper and other things. Japan wasn't building very much in the past 10-15 years, now there is going to be a big jump in the demand for building materials in Japan." - in Economic Times

Yen, Japanese Market And How To Play The Disaster

The way yen has depreciated and Japanese markets have come down, do you think this is more like a panic reaction?

Yes, normally whenever there is an artificial event like this, it is a terrible tragedy, but also buying opportunity because we assume we are not going to have gigantic earthquakes every year. So it is normally a buying opportunity. It is a question of when you step in to buy.

Oil Outlook: Prices, Saudi Arabia & Reserves

Saudi Arabia has been lying about their reserves for decades. Saudi Arabia the last two times said we are going to increase production and they could not increase production.

They told George Bush they would increase production and they could not.Don`t fall for that.

The reason oil is going up is because the world is running out of known reserves of oil. I don`t know what will happen in the Middle East, if it all blows up tomorrow afternoon, it will go there (all time highs) next week. But if it does not, if things calm down, oil will go back down for a while. But the world is running out of known reserves of oil. these are simple facts.
