Fellow Investor,
If you've invested in ETFs over the past few years - you've probably
lost money.
I know it's not news to you, but the simple fact is that most ETFs were
never designed to succeed for individual investors - they were designed
to do only one thing: line the pockets of the Wall Street big shots with
the brilliant idea to sell "easy" investments to Main Street investors.
It's simple to see why: they make between 0.5% and 1.0% regardless of
what the ETF does. Just another Wall Street con job.
Good investments are rarely easy, and although ETFs seem like a
no-brainer, that's because most of them were specifically designed to
appear that way.
Take the United States Natural Gas ETF (NYSE: UNG). Natural gas prices
rose 23% from May of 2009 to May of 2010 - but this ETF lost 50% during
that same period.
It's a disgrace...
But the same firm also launched the United States Oil ETF (NYSE: USO).
It too has failed to measure up to its underlying commodity:

Over the past 18
months, oil prices jumped 80% - but USO has gone nowhere. A total bust.
It's disgusting to think that people would sell an investment to the
public with no hope of seeing it succeed - but unfortunately, it happens
again and again.
Of course there are exceptions to the rule. But not many.
Which ones are designed to succeed? It wasn't easy, but in the report
below, I reveal the details on my three favorite ETFs in the market, and
how you can buy them today.
How to
Find ETFs that Make Money
Most ETFs were designed to fail. According to a study by equity-market
research firm TrimTabs, you could have made 7-times your money betting
against the ETF market over the past 10 years. And yet most investors
bet alongside them and piled up the losses.
That's a sad fact - and you better believe it's well-known on Wall
Street.
The author of the study, Vincent Deluard actually says, "Just do the
opposite of what ETF investors do and you'll do okay."
That's a terrible track record for ETFs, and it truly shows the problem
with launching funds based on popular trends.
It's not surprising, unfortunately. Most ETFs are launched by the same
"heads I win, tails you lose" Wall Street banks that received billions
of dollars in bailout funds. They're peddled by the same firms that take
1-2% no matter how badly they perform.
So if you're going to be an ETF investor, it's more important than ever
to buy the best possible investments that aren't overly complicated, and
actually have a track record of successfully living up to their stated
goals.
Most ETF investors try to time the market with popular investments that
don't just lag the market, but get destroyed by the market, and pay a
half a percent in fees for the privilege of losing money.
So you shouldn't try to second guess the market - just buy the best.
Today, good ETFs are few and far between.
The trick has been to find ETFs that have two things going for them:
1)
The fundamental underlying trend is strong.
2)
The specific fund is designed to take full advantage of the
trend.
In this investment environment, you have to stick with certainties.
That's why the first, most basic ETF I'm recommending today is based in
silver.
The Silver ETF 37% More Profitable than NYSE: SLV
 |
| Silver's off 22% from
its historical correlation with gold--now's a great time to get in
on my favorite silver ETF with massive upside potential. |
If you want to
hedge your portfolio from inflation with silver, most people will tell
you to buy the iShares silver trust ETF (NYSE: SLV).
This ETF gets more press than any other silver ETF in the market - and
there's little wonder why. With nearly $5 billion in assets, it dwarfs
every other silver ETF.
But when it comes to performance, this ETF doesn't measure up.
So far this year, silver prices are up about 12% - but SLV has barely
made 6% gains. But the fund managers don't care, they get half a
percentage of the fund no matter what. At the current valuation, that
means iShares pockets $2.5 million every year.
But there's another, little known silver ETF that's tracking much
closer to actual gains made in silver. So far this year, it's performed
37% better than SLV, and there's very little coverage in the mainstream
media.
When it comes to keeping pace with silver, this ETF is the best one in
the market.
And right now with silver prices severely lagging gains made in gold,
you know they're due for a huge correction to the upside.
That's because gold typically sells for 55 times the price of silver,
but right now, the ratio is over 65. That means that silver has a
built-in upside of at least 22%...

If you believe as I do that silver prices are due for even bigger gains
in the future, it's the only ETF you should own.
Of course, I'm not just bullish on silver - I still think that gold has
plenty of room to run. And right now I'm also excited about a gold ETF
that's already dominated the market this year.
The Gold ETF Better than
GLD and Gold
 |
| The GLD is fine if you
just want to track gold prices, but my favorite gold ETF outpaces
the price of gold. |
Unlike the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE: GLD) – the world's most popular gold
ETF, my favorite gold ETF doesn't buy gold and store it in a vault.
Instead, it buys a basket of the most promising small and mid cap gold
stocks - the ones with the potential to return 10 to 100 times your
money over time.
GLD will never outpace gold - by design.
And unlike my favorite gold
ETF, GLD is completely unaudited. We have no way of knowing how much
gold GLD has allocated in its vaults. We just have to take their word
for it.
If you buy my favorite gold ETF today, you know exactly how many shares
of each gold company you're getting. It's in their prospectus, which is
fully audited by the SEC.
I also believe that this ETF will continue to outpace gold - possibly by
two or three-fold in the next year – that's because this ETF is
comprised of the kinds of small gold stocks that typically outpace gains
made in gold.
Like Royal Gold (NYSE: RGLD) – a company that's tallied over 1,100%
gains in the past 10 years while gold has only made 300% in the same
period:

I'd never
suggest putting all of your money in a company like Royal Gold – it's
too risky. But buying my favorite gold ETF gives you exposure to
companies like Royal Gold – but also to companies like Allied Nevada
(NYSE: ANV) – a firm that's returned a more down-to-earth 175% over the
past three years, while gold has returned 75%.
The point of owning this ETF is to capture the lion's share of
extraordinary gains in the small to mid-cap gold mining sector. Putting
all of your money into any one of these companies would be risky – but
buying this ETF gives you a hedge. Not all of these companies will
double or triple. Some will be ten-baggers – others will go nowhere.
But buying this ETF today gives you a chance to double or triple your
money by taking advantage of the average gains across the sector. That's
smart – and it's using the ETF investment vehicle in a way that
maximizes your benefit while minimizing your costs.
Buying all of the stocks in this ETF would cost you a fortune in
transaction fees, so paying the modest expense fee for this ETF makes
good sense.
All of this information on how to buy my favorite silver and gold ETFs
can be found in my free report called "The Only 3 Commodity ETFs
You Need for Profits."
I'll tell you how you can access this report, but there's one more ETF
that you should know about first.
The Only "Green" ETF You Should Own Today
 |
| The original "green"
investment is agriculture. With global populations expected to
double this century, those controlling food production will have the
power, and the profits. This green ETF is keyed into major
agriculture plays. |
If you think that most green energy stocks are bogus, then I have to say
that I agree with you.
That's why I've been researching ETFs in the original "green" sector:
agriculture.
Because right now investors have no idea if wind farms or bio-fuels will
ever be sustainable or competitive with current "non-green" technologies
- but we do know that the world's growing population will always need
food.
Agriculture is a very unloved sector right now, but my favorite
agriculture ETF has been making some serious gains already.
In the past year, this unknown and uncared for ETF made 50% gains.
That's no accident. This ETF tracks some of the largest and most
profitable farming stocks on the planet, including grain giants like
Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE: ADM) and Monsanto (NYSE: MON) – but also:
- Two of the
largest fertilizer companies: Potash Inc. (NYSE: POT) and Mosaic Co
(NYSE: MOS).
- America's
best farming equipment company: Deere (NYSE: DE)
- A $24 billion
European herbicide company: (NYSE: SYT)
Buying this ETF
today is a no-brainer play on the certainty that people will continue
eating corn, beef, pork, wheat, soybeans, and chickens.
And sure, you could simply go through the list and buy every billion
dollar agriculture stock, but that would cost you a bundle in
transaction costs.
If you're interested in finding out the name of this agriculture ETF,
along with my favorite gold and silver ETFs, I'd like to give you my
full report called "The Only 3 Commodity ETFs You Need for Profits",
complete with my entry and exit recommendations – and I'd like to give
it to you for free.
This report is part of a much larger body of work - one that I think
you'll find extremely valuable if you've been looking for a way to
profit during these uncertain times.
You Can't Trust Wall Street Anymore
We're actually in the middle of a
huge commodity bull market. That's what makes it extra frustrating to
watch Wall Street firms continually prey on otherwise savvy investors
with new tar-pit ETFs month after month.
As I said, it's not enough to be right on the trend. ETF managers would
like you to believe that you can just buy one of their ETFs in the
appropriate sector and not worry about it.
But that's not the reality.
The reality is that you can profit with the right commodity ETFs – the
ones in my special report.
And the good news is: this commodity bull run has at least four years
left, and probably more. Take a look at the history of commodity bull markets in the chart
below, and you'll see what I mean:

We've been in a commodity bull
market since about 2000. If this bull run lasts as long as average, then
we have four years left! The shortest commodity bull market ever lasted
14 years.
Now is a great time to be a commodity investor!
We're going to see the prices of many commodities double, triple and
then double again.
Look what happened to commodity prices in general during the other bull
runs:
 |
Uranium went to $22 a pound in
January 1970 to $75 in 1975, a 240% increase!
|
 |
The price of Aluminum rose from
$28 in early 1970 to $78 by the end of the decade!
|
 |
Tin went from $1.90 to $8.40 in
the 70s, a jump of 342%!
|
 |
Zinc was going for 18 cents per
pound in January 1970 and hit 44 cents by 1979!
|
 |
The price of coal in 1970 was
33 cents / MM BTU, but rose to $1.27 by the end of 1979.
|
 |
Platinum went from $176 in 1970
to $820 in late 1979.
|
 |
Wheat was at $8 in early 1970
but hit $27.25 in 1974, a 240% increase that affected most all foods.
|
 |
Silver was $1.76 in 1970 and
$20.98 ten years later, that's a jump of 1,092%!
|
 |
Gold was priced at $35.96 at
the start of 1970 and ended the decade at $614, up 1,607%! |
It's already begun to happen
again. Your key to big profits this time around is knowing which
companies stand to gain the most.
With "deflation" on everyone's lips you might be thinking that this bull
market in commodities is petering out – but no bull market moves
straight upwards.
Look...when the price of sulphur, (a critical component of fertilizer)
goes from $50 to $650 a ton in 13 months (that's an inflationary gain of
1,200%) you know something is up.
The good news is—it's
not too late to jump on the commodities band wagon and not only protect
the buying power of your nest egg, but grow it as well.
One of the easiest ways to start investing in commodities is buy the
three ETFs I mentioned in this letter - and you can do so in the next
