Softs Long Term

Y

youngtrader

Anybody know where I can get long term fundamental info on the softs? Not really long term but like what kind of a position is the market in since the beginning of the year. I know I can check out usda but does anybody know of a free weekly commentary or something with a lot of fundamental data in it?

Thanks
 
The Commodities Research Bureau (CRB) has been publishing yearbooks with historical fundamental information. It is a good way to start getting a perspective on long term production and consumption patterns.

Yahoo and Google have a free news/blog/web alert service where you are sent links to news stories and sites that contain user-specified words and phrases.

For the time being it's free.

Some links are useful, some not; all are interesting though.

If you are new to commodities/futures don't neglect to visit the exchange sites themselves. They have a lot of basic data on whatever futures contract it is you want to trade (i.e. history, geography, rationale for the contract's existence, market participant profiles and such.)

Enjoy!

Thanks everyone for the advice. No im not new to trading commodities but am new to trading the soft commodity markets (I am mainly a grain trader). Most of my soft trading has been very short term and mostly based off of the charts. I would just like to get more in depth with the fundamentals as that is what I feel the most confident trading off of.
