Commodity Trader's Almanac 2012

(192 pages, $45 hardcover, 2012, ISBN 978-1-118-07847-1) by Jeffrey A. Hirsh and John L. Pearson, published by John Wiley & Sons. Severe volatility in oil, precious metals, and food prices causes millions to be lost as well as gained in the commodities market. Despite the erratic ups and downs, there is a cyclical pattern to commodity markets. Weather, holidays, human behavior, and other factors affect supply and demand and, ultimately, commodity prices. This book includes monthly almanac pages, market highlights, detailed statistics, historical strengths and weaknesses, seasonal tendencies, and more. This edition has added a primer on options and spread trading; more ETFs and exchange traded notes (ETNs); and other new information.
