Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Best Market

In Hot Commodities, Jim Rogers provides the lowdown on the most lucrative markets for today and tomorrow. In late 1998, gliding under the radar, a bull market in commodities began. At the same time, Rogers started his own commodities index fund. It is now the single-best performing index fund in the world in any asset class. Less risky than stocks and less sluggish than bonds, commodities are where the money is-and will be in the years ahead.

Rogers's strategies are simple and straightforward. You can start small-a few thousand dollars will suffice. It's all about putting your money into stuff you understand: the basic materials of everyday life, from copper to sugar to cotton. Once you recognize the cyclical and historical trading patterns outlined here, you'll be on your way. For small investors and high rollers alike, Hot Commodities is as good as gold...or lead, or aluminum, which are some of the commodities Rogers says could be just as rewarding for investors.
