iShares S&P GSCI Commodity-Indexed (ETF) (GSG)

CAPS Rating:
***

Exchange traded fund

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

I am guessing the Middle East problems are going to get worse before it is going to get better. Already the "Middle East heavy" OPEC is sticking up their noses to the high Oil prices.

I wanted to diversify my investments into commodities after reading Roger's "Hot Commodities". This ETF met three of my requirements for a fund focused on commodities-- 1) followed a diversified index of different commodities, 2) more reasonable expenses (compared to the hedge funds that I dug up in my research) and 3) invested in future contracts rather than just stocks and equities.

Commodities will continue to outperform the lagging world economy as the Fed creates liquidity and thereby reducing the value of the dollar.

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
