THE SECRETS TO CAPITALIZING ON THE COMMODITIES BOOM

In the mid-1970s, when Bob Greer scrolled through miles of microfilm in the basement of a public library in order to record commodity prices in his yellow legal pad, the idea of commodities being an investable asset class was way outside the mainstream. Now, it's a multibilliondollar vehicle for achieving portfolio diversification and inflation hedging--and he and his colleagues have written the book on earning better returns than the indexes themselves

In Intelligent Commodity Indexing, Bob joins his fellow leaders of PIMCO's Commodity Practice, Nic Johnson and Mihir Worah, in opening up commodity indexes. Never before has there been a more thorough explanation of how a commodity index works coupled with a powerful set of strategies for making it work for you. Inside, you'll find the most up-to-date tools and time-proven best practices for earning "structural alpha" by capitalizing on recurring risk and liquidity premiums in the commodities markets. It offers the right amount of history and theory to reinforce cuttingedge techniques for:

  • Interpreting how seasonal effects change risk premia
  • Choosing the most profitable market for specific commodity exposure
  • Using intelligent commodity indexing to collect risk premiums in the options market
  • Maximizing roll yield in order to increase long-term returns
  • Managing risk, including specific frameworks and systems

Investors gain a superior advantage with this book's coverage of the nuts-and-bolts workings of various markets.

Smoothest Dermaplane Session EVER!
Scent: For Sensitive Skin, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is MIRACULOUS! I also struggle with dermaplanning at home and much prefer to have a professional do it, but that’s too costly for me to do as often as I’d like. I won’t say using this made the results as good as a professional but it wasn’t far off! It literally transformed the entire at home experience! I also end up with my skin feeling dry and irritated and almost bumpy and I feel like I never get a close or smooth result and it takes forever. This cut the process down by about half the time, I had zero redness or irritation afterwards, my skin was silky smooth, and I had zero rough spots. It took a very small amount of product and I never had to add any extra. I left it on afterwards until I got in the shower because it felt so soothing on my face. I have experienced no breakouts after using this and I honestly feel like it helped repair some areas that always feel a bit rough on my face. I can’t recommend this enough! For the record, I have tried dermaplanning with a variety of regular face oils and those worked just as well as using nothing. So I was really doubtful that just because this was marketed for dermaplanning it would make a big difference. But it honestly made a massive difference! I really appreciate that I was able to purchase a smaller bottle at a reasonable price to try. Even though the small bottle will probably last forever I’ll definitely be ordering the big size when I’m out. I will forever purchase this stuff!

Apply the Oil first prior to using your dermaplane. I used “for sensitive skin.”
Scent: For Sensitive Skin, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I only had to apply a small amount to my facial areas where I use my dermaplane. It was easy to,apply, wasn’t messy, didn’t irritate my skin or cause any reaction. It worked great with my dermaplane and soothed my skin.
