The collapse in commodities prices since summer has some investors wondering whether the complex has any place in their portfolios. The answer depends on the time horizon.
The Thomson Reuters/Jefferies–CRB Index, which tracks a basket of commodities, has fallen about 22% since June 20, according to data from SIX Financial Information. U.S. oil prices are off 46% over the same period, while gold has slid about 7%, on top of a substantial retreat over the prior 18 months. See original story here.
