September was a cold, cruel month for those looking up to hard assets for safe-haven rewards. Last month, the Standard & Poor's GSCI gauge of 24 commodities plunged 12% for its biggest loss since the financial slump began in 2008. But, according to some experts, the worst is finally behind commodities. Now, you can see if they're right at absolutely no cost via EWI's Futures Junctures FreeWeek.

Since rallying to a near 4-month peak on September 1, coffee prices have endured a powerful selloff to an 8-month low. Seeing coffee's reversal before the market went from "high octane" to "weak blend" was NOT a benefit of fundamental analysis. EWI's Commodity Specialty Service on the other hand, was well ahead of the turn.

Over the past week, those resting on the mainstream "LORE"ls that commodities are the ultimate economic safe-haven GOT a very rude awakening: On Friday, September 23, commodities suffered their worst week in four months right alongside plunging stocks and precious metals.

It could take a while for the "fundamental" experts to sort their coffee outlooks out. In the meantime, EWI's Commodities Specialty Service editor Peter DeSario sees a very clear near-term Elliott wave picture developing in the market as we speak. This afternoon (of August 31), I spoke directly with Peter regarding this very break.

Month number eight has seen an ugly fate for the world's leading equity markets. So far, it's been the worst August for US stocks in 13 years. YET -- while the financial storm has ravaged stock values, several popular commodity markets have actually strengthened amidst the tumult. Over the last year, the Thomson Reuters/Jefferies CRB Index of 19 commodities has soared 20% versus the Dow Jones Industrial Average's paltry 5.5% gain over the same period.

Over the past month, much of North America has been hit by triple-digit temperatures and record-high humidity. And, according to EWI's chief commodity analyst Jeffrey Kennedy, a major "heat dome" is also about to set in over the world's commodities. And in his brand-new Monthly Futures Junctures, Jeffrey shows you where -- and how soon -- the thermometer of opportunity may reach a boiling point in these and other commodities:

Coffee Prices: Lightning DOES Strike Twice
What helped EWI's Futures Junctures Service to stay a step ahead of coffee's biggest moves?

This time last year, coffee prices were about as hot as Anthony Wiener’s now defunct political career. In June 2010, the market was scraping the bottom near $1.30/pound. AND, according to the mainstream experts, a very bearish supply picture should have kept coffee's cards stacked against it. Here, the following news headlines from May-June 2010 say plenty (emphasis added)...

May-June is not summer, nor is it spring. It's the unofficial "fifth" season, known to many as "Wedding" season. And, after months of will-she, won't-she speculation, the date has finally been set: The commodity sector will walk down the aisle to meet her long-awaited groom. The question is -- Will he take the diamond ring out of his nose (i.e., Bull) or from his paw (i.e., Bear)?

Anyone who's ever traded in hard assets knows that prices for commodities often turn faster than a feral cat being carried to a bubble bath. You blink for half-a-second and "Poof!"-- the market trend whirls right around and dashes headlong into the opposite direction. Make no mistake, this is volatile territory. The only way to anticipate the moves of these markets before they happen is to reduce the number of unknown variables in the mix. So, how do you do that? Well, if the mainstream equation "bad news = bearish trend," and "good news = bullish trend" were true -- then fundamental analysis would be the perfect trading tool.

Trading using technical indicators -- such as the MACD, for example, Moving Average Convergence-Divergence -- can do one of two things: help you or hinder you. Using them as a forecasting method alone can be about as predictable as flipping a coin. But when you combine them with other forms of technical analysis (i.e. the Wave Principle), the same MACD can be your new best friend.

Here's the short of it: In my experience, most events cited by "fundamental" analysts as the reason for this or that move in the markets have the shelf life of an open container of heavy cream. Just when you think it's safe to pour into your trading "cup," said factor curdles and sours.
Take, for instance, the recent news regarding coffee. On April 21, coffee prices soared past $3 a pound for the first time in 34 years. And, according to the usual sources, the number one reason for coffee's bullish caffeine buzz is...
