I regularly get a series of commodity index updates from Dow Jones – I originally started to get these when ETF trackers for commodities began to come online. From my perspective the interesting thing is the notion of time frames that they apply – as you can see from the data below all indices have…
I find it fascinating that so many new start ups have at the centre a philosophy of how things should be done and that this philosophy is the basis for the way they not only do business but also the way they relate to one another. Compare and contrast this philosophy with that of the…

But occasionally I get something I dont expect. Such is the…
Over the past few months LB and I have noticed what I would call a climax in fear in businesses and individuals. We have tried in vain to engage other trading businesses in various joint ventures that would be good for all. However, despite leaping at the chance the reponse from all has been…..we cant…
The internet has become so much more interesting since the Russians starting buying video camera’s
