Challenging Investing Environment For Commodities in June 2011

With the commodity volatility, I found June was a challenging month. For the most part, I have left my positions unchanged. That is, I remain with a heavy bias toward commodities.

The release of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve certainly shook up the market. However, I agree with Mark Fisher's view that he expressed 23 June 2011. And here we are a week later, and oil prices are up with West Texas Intermediate and Brent at roughly $95 and $112 respectively.

I am looking forward to earnings season when we will get greater insight as to how companies are performing and their outlooks for future.
