– Putting It All Together –
Well there you have it – a comprehensive guide to the Oil $500 story and a basic introduction to commodity investing. We’ve covered a lot of ground… In this book, we’ve looked at the beginnings of oil exploration in Pennsylvania, the history of this volatile, boom-and-bust industry, and how geopolitics has affected the markets for more than 100 years. We have discussed the coming industrial expansion in Asia driven by India and China and how their population growth and transportation needs will push demand and oil prices higher. We have explored technology and innovation in the oil space, specifically the horizontal drilling and fracking revolution, as well as future technologies that will keep the United States as a top producer. We have a checklist to help us identify investment opportunities in the energy space. And we have a primer on the kinds of investments you should look for to take advantage of the Oil $500 trend. Finally, in Part II, we showed you some of the other kinds of commodity investments you should be making to keep your wealth growing and your money working as we track oil up to $500 per barrel. And we shared Porter’s four-step guide to beating the market. I hope you find this book both informative and useful as you seek ways to create and retain wealth. And I hope you will keep up to date on all the trends and opportunities we’ve discussed by following me each month at Commodity Supercycles . Good investing!
