The next bull market is here. It's not in stocks. It's not in bonds. It's in commodities - and some smart investors will exploit this market to achieve record returns over the next decade. Jim Rogers, before writing his best-sellers "Investment Biker" and "Adventure Capitalist," was one of the most successful investors in the world. He co-founded the Quantum Fund and made so much money that he never needed to work again. Despite his success, Rogers had never written a book with practical investment advice - until now.

In "Hot Commodities," Rogers offers insights into the most profitable markets today and in the future. In 1998, under the radar, a bull market in commodities began. Rogers believes that it will continue for at least fifteen years - and has invested his money in it. Since 1998, he started his own commodity index, which has increased by 165% since then, with over 200 million dollars invested, making it the best-performing index worldwide in any asset category.

Less risky than stocks and less slow than bonds, commodities are the future - and will be for the coming years. Rogers' strategies are simple and understandable. You can start with small investments - a few thousand dollars are enough. It's a matter of investing in things you understand, like copper, sugar, cotton, corn, or crude oil. Once you recognize the cyclical and historical trading patterns described here, you will be on your way to success.

In language as vivid as it is accessible, Rogers explains why the world of commodity investing can be among the simplest and how commodities are the foundation upon which investors can evaluate companies, markets, and entire economies. To be truly good investors, you need to know something about commodities. For small investors and big players, "Hot Commodities" is as good as gold . . . or lead, or aluminum, which are some of the commodities Rogers mentions as potential for returns.
