Now’s the time to own commodities, says Goldman Sachs

Historically low supply and booming demand as the world recovers from COVID-19 make for ideal conditions to invest in commodities. There’s never been a better time to own commodities, according to US investment bank Goldman Sachs, which has bullishly forecast a decade-long commodity “super cycle”.

In a recent Bloomberg TV interview, the bank’s global head of commodities research Jeff Currie said he’s never in his 30-year career seen commodity markets pricing in the shortages they are right now.

Describing the current global economy as an “unprecedented” environment, Mr Currie highlighted the severe backwardation of most commodities’ price curves.

Backwardation is a market structure that indicates the cost of delivery today is higher than tomorrow. This event has only occurred seven times in the last 50 years and Mr Currie attributes it to “textbook shortages”.“2008 was a financial crisis – this is a molecule crisis. We’re out of everything: oil, gas, coal, copper, […]

Penny Stocks on the Rise 2022

Penny Stocks on the Rise 2022

One way to take advantage of penny stocks on the rise is by using the “momentum trading strategy.” There are many different strategies in trading. And this one requires finding out which stocks are doing well. For example, those that have gone into an uptrend. The momentum strategy capitalizes on temporary bulls in the market.

For example, if a penny stock has begun rising for a week or two, that would get some attention. It can be easy to find these. Because lots of people are talking about them. You could buy into that stock, then buy out some time later and make a profit.

How do we use this strategy? Find more long-term increases in sustainable businesses. And we want them to be industries that are growing as time progresses. So, I’ve outlined a few for you to investigate.

Penny stocks are very volatile. If you are investing money that you […]

BMO’s picks for TSX stocks that offer growth at a reasonable price. Plus, the RRSP portfolio shakeup and why investors should stay cautious on uranium

BMO chief strategist Brian Belski noted the significant outperformance of Canadian stocks versus the S&P 500 in January but warned investors to pull in their horns a bit and pay closer attention to valuations as 2022 progresses.

The returns of the S&P/TSX Composite Index beat the S&P 500 by about five percentage points in January and Mr. Belski noted that this was the biggest relative outperformance since 2009. The sell-off in U.S. technology stocks combined with strong returns from the domestic energy sector were a big driver of the trend but the strategist also noted that valuations played an important role.

“The key underlying trend from our perspective was a valuation correction driven largely by receding earnings,” he wrote. “In fact, the top two quintiles composed of the highest valuation stocks in the TSX have seen their 2022 EPS estimates revised lower on average by 1.9% and 1.5%, respectively, over the […]

Asset Class Winners and Losers if Russia Invades Ukraine

Asset Class Winners and Losers if Russia Invades Ukraine

As Russian troops gather at the Ukraine border a war looks imminent. U.S intelligence has warned that Russia is likely to invade Ukraine as early as this week. Investors can look at ways to protect and position their portfolio if the Russian invasion goes ahead, as is widely expected.

Based on the February 27, 2014, Russian invasion that took control of the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine, any invasion may meet with limited resistance. The 2014 invasion and takeover of Crimea was completed in only a month. Of course, on this occasion the whole of Ukraine is at risk and the Ukrainian military response should be a lot greater.
