If You Could Look at the Commodity Markets Through the Lens of History and Know When Major Turning Points are Likely to Occur Based on the Analysis of Every Historical Precedent, Would You Consider that an "Un-Fair Advantage"?

Fact: The shortest bear market in commodity trading history was approximately 11 years?

A look at the history of overall commodity prices since 1730 (chart below) begins to reveal the importance of having a long-term historical understanding. But it may not be obvious.

The view of history for the average market participant spans back to 1960 for many U.S. markets.

This is not because these markets began trading in 1960. But it is due to the fact daily price data before 1960 is simply not yet digitized and available for consumers.

So, with the advent of the computer age, computerized price data for most financial and commodity markets is available going back to 1960. This leaves a tremendous amount of daily price data for over a hundred years in some markets, that cannot be analyzed in a digital format.

With over 28 U.S. markets, in which many of them started trading in the mid 1800’s, and some in the early 1900’s, this untapped wealth of valuable price data is waiting for someone to come along and make use of historical knowledge.

And that's exactly what we've done...

In order to gather and computerize every daily price we invested

  • 25 years
  • $250,000
  • Thousands of man-hours
  • Millions of keystrokes.

We now have a complete database of price history for U.S. markets that has been DIGITIZED so we can create charts and run calculations using customized computer software (the Research Engine™).

Since 1990 when we started publishing, we have utilized the advantage provided by a lens into the history of commodity market prices. it is rather obvious to us that an advantage has been gained.

Moreover, it's not just an advantage to have this much history...It's truly an UNFAIR ADVANTAGE that we are able to pass on to our subscribers.

Let me get back to this chart that you saw earlier:

In this chart, you can see that history is marked by alternating periods of inflation, deflation and price stagnation.

Take notice of this important pattern: there have been SIX major inflationary commodity bull markets in over 250 years of trading.

You can see the final highs were:

  • June 1781
  • December 1815
  • August 1864
  • May 1920
  • February 1951
  • November 1980

And, the deflationary periods following these respective highs lasted:

  • 11 years
  • 29 years
  • 32 years
  • 13 years
  • 17 years
  • 19 years

Now, for a relatively recent example (considering the chart goes back to 1749), lets flashback to the 1980’s for a moment.

During the 1980s, there were plenty of commodity traders who made trading and investment decisions based on the assumption that the same type of commodity inflation that occurred in 1970s would continue in the 1980’s.

Needless to say, they were dead wrong, and they paid a heavy price with major losses trying to play the long side of the market during the 19 deflationary years between 1980 and 1999, when commodities were in a 19-year generational bear market.

However, subscribers to our services (which began publishing in 1990) were provided with analysis that would have helped them avoid the losses that would have been incurred by taking long positions during this 19-year bear market.

We waited until 2001 to tell subscribers that overall commodities were an "All-out Buy"… and the bear market was finally over.

"We are starting what will be one of the three greatest commodity inflations in 140 years, which will take place in 2 phases"

~ January 2002 Past Present Futures Newsletter

In turn, many of our subscribers positioned themselves on the right side of history, expecting a long-term bear market in commodities to come to an end, and a bull to begin.

The rest is history.

We don't think there's any question as to whether or not a multi-generational historical perspective important. On the contrary, we believe it is vital.

"Your specific entries, exits and stop placement have greatly enhanced my bottom line in trading"

I am a commodity producer (agriculturals and petroleum) and have tried to be a student of price movements all of my 30 year career. Having subscribed to your services for about ten years, I have great appreciation for your insight of historical price patterns. 

Your anticipation of overall commodity inflation back in 1999 and 2000 encouraged me to take long-term positions in the physical crude oil market that has reaped a wonderful harvest.

Your specific recommendations relative to position entries, exits and stop placement have encouraged my own self-discipline and greatly enhanced my bottom line in trading. 

Thank you for sharing your talent, perspective and integrity with me.

"I rode long put options in the T-Bonds which for a few weeks and tripled my money"

You showed me how to use the cycles present in many markets to get in on major market moves.

The best call was the bottom in the CRB Index in October, 2001 where you called within only a WEEK of the actual low based on the 30-year cycle! Your call for a low in interest rates (high in the T-Bonds) for late January 2006 based on the 60 year cycle got me into long put options in the T-Bonds which I rode for a few weeks and tripled my money by early March of 2006!

The best way to profit from the upcoming cycles is to subscribe to your service.
