Question

I hear AG, OIL and Commodities are out in trading and with the US Dollar stronger which area is good now?

Answer 1

usually when something is out of favor with the general public, there's a better chance it will perform opposite to popular opinion.

Answer 2

  You might want to short oil and other commodities with ETFs since they are heading down. DUG is the  symbol for an ETF oil and gas ultrashort.

Answer 3

medical but avoid the drug companies.  

Answer 4

yeah, commodities is not where your money should be, it looks like the sector rotation is out of these material stocks into banks. But with bad news in the banking sector, UBS splitting up and foreclosures rates aky rocketing the money is moving into bio-tech and pharmaceuticals like Genetech, Amgen and others!

Answer 5

I've been short on USO and DUG, long on DIG for a couple of weeks now and have done pretty well. I'm getting out when/if oil hits $95-$100. I'm going long on steel and coal after the olympic games. I also think the tech. sector is gaining strength. This is my strategy and it may not be suitable for all investors.
