This was a visual that I wasn’t sure about. During my professional career I have never been that involved in buying commodities. Except for a few metals for fabrication and the price of gold when I purchased circuit boards.

Surprisingly, take a look at what has happened with the returns for gold & silver versus coal and lead.

I am sure that I am going to have to spend a lot more time looking at this chart and researching cause and effect.

If you have spotted a trend that others should know about and you have some examples or answers then please contact us.
