With the stock market as unpredictable as the economy, many investors believe the commodities market presents a less volatile, and more predictable, investment opportunity. In clear, accessible language, commodities expert Michael C. Thomsett explains each of these investment strategies as it relates to specific commodities, such as crude oil, wheat and other grains, precious metals, basic and luxury food items, and foreign currency exchange.

Michael C. Thomsett writes on trading and investing topics, and has published over 70 books, including five additional options books. He has been writing since 1978 and fulltime since 1984. Among his books is the best-selling Getting Started in Options (Wiley, over 250,000 copies sold). He has appeared on network TV such as CNN, ABC, and Fox News. Thomsett lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
