How Did the MarketClub World Commodity Portfolio Fare in Q4?

The last quarter of ‘09 proved to be the sweetest quarter for the year for a World Commodity Portfolio. For the quarter, we had a dollar return of $16,041.75 before commissions, which is approximately a 32% return on capital. The World Commodity Portfolio (WCP) needs $50,000 to run and is based on double margins for every market. Double margins mean that by depositing twice the amount of money that is required by the exchanges, you are effectively de-leveraging the instrument you are trading. We consider this a more conservative approach to the commodity markets.

The Q4 results have proven to be very successful for MarketClub members using this strategy. With a 90% win rate, the World Commodity Portfolio stands out as being an excellent investment vehicle over the long-term. It is interesting to note that the only market that has scored successfully in every quarter is the wheat market. The other five markets: corn, soybeans, crude oil, gold and the dollar index have all come in between the 80 and 90% range.



The key to the World Commodity Portfolio is using a consistent and scientifically proven approach to the commodity markets.

Citi Trade, Missouri Bank Closed, West Va. Bank Cuts Ties To Feds

"Citi Trade Profitable But Now Tough To Execute"
A popular trade involving Citigroup shares could yield fat profits after the bank said on Friday it is not changing terms of a preferred share exchange, but new investors could struggle to get a piece of the action. The trade involves buying Citi preferred stock and simultaneously selling borrowed shares of common stock (C.N), known as short-selling. The preferred shares can be converted into common stock in a few weeks, meaning they can effectively be used to buy Citigroup shares at a much lower price than the level at which they can be sold now, potentially yielding a 200 percent profit....Complete Story
