The world has changed and so too has investing. The market is shell shocked and yesterday's momentum stocks are today's slow-motion stocks. But in the new reality of low-growth investing, commodities are hot and getting hotter. A rapidly industrializing and urbanizing Asia will be demanding lots more copper, zinc, iron ore, coal, fertilizers, gold and oil to transform their societies. Commodities are it and that's great news for investors who want to profit from the next great bull market in commodities. In fact, commodities may be about the only asset class that is likely to outperform the broad market in the future. Although they are without a doubt important to the global economy, commodities are among the most misunderstood of all asset classes. Stocks, bonds and real estate all have legions of followers and plenty of experts agree on their importance within an investment portfolio, but venture into the world of commodities and you are into an area that's intimidating to the average investor, where suspicions run deep and understanding is limited. As a result, commodities get short-shrift in most investment accounts and investors miss out on some important opportunities. The Little Book of Commodity Investing is an indispensible guide to learning the ins and outs of commodity investing. It's about identifying opportunities to profit from the coming bull market in commodities. It explains the benefits of commodities as part of a well diversified investment portfolio; covers all of the major commodities markets; what makes commodities and the companies that produce them tick; why commodities sometimes zig and then zag; what to buy and when to buy it; and why commodities are the next big thing. Today's world is a very different world-a world where an understanding of commodities is a prerequisite for investment success. And The Little Book of Commodity Investing is the roadmap you need to discover where the opportunities of the future lie, and what to do about it.
This book is formatted as an interview with Jonathan, a layperson who had no surety knowledge when the conversation began. Many contractors avoid potentially profitable bonded jobs because they don't understand Surety, they think bonds are "too difficult", or that they don't qualify. My hope is that you will use this book as a handbook. You might not read it cover-to-cover, but get the general idea in the first few chapters and use the rest as a reference, as needed. As a reference book, this might be something that you can keep in your desk (or your truck) when an invitation to bid or a contract or a permit leads you to think, "I need a bond." I hope you will pull out your handy little book for reference, so you're prepared when you call your surety bond producer and they ask, "What kind of bond do you need?" This book will provide enough insight for you to be confident when applying for surety credit. Because surety is such an unusual and complicated financial product, having just a small amount of knowledge to talk to others about the topic of surety will give you an edge over your competition.

''So I went out into the night, walked up the hill, discovered new things about the night and myself, and came home refreshed. For just as the night has the moon and the stars, so the darkness of the soul can be lit up by small fireflies - such as these calm and comforting thoughts that I have jotted down for you..."
