I only know about Interactive Broker. I wonder if it is any good? I couldn’t get their TWS Demo working behind the firewall at work.

Thanks a bundle!

The stock market is down from it’s highs by quite a bit. There must be more options purchasing and commodities, futures and foreign markets playing going on.
Or bonds…

I don’t have a lot to invest but I believe the dollar is just going to keep getting weaker. Many analysts I’ve read really like the Canadian dollar. Also how does a small investor go about investing in different kinds of commodities?

How are commodities like Silver and Gold valued in the Philippines? Are they valued by ounce like here in America?

For example one ounce of Gold $950 (US) P39900 (Phil) per ounce?

How can I invest in commodities directly?

Alan F asked:


How can I invest in commodities beside buying stocks of say Exxon or Shell. Say I believe bushel of corn or barrel of oil are going to rise? How do I invest? I do not want to buy the commodities per se, but just invest and sell it on paper. NOT INVESTING IN STOCKS, MUTUAL FUNDS etc, ideas? Where can I go thanks.

Is there a difference between buying wheat in the commodities market, for example, and buying wheat futures?

commodities
skahhh asked:


Are they trying to force something out of the world, intentionally or not? Are they a political force which will eventually force nationalizing all business and trade of commodities in the US and the world?

If commodities get too high, so as the common person cannot afford to pay for it, will this not force the United States and other governments to at least ban commodity trading on the exchanges?
