Q: Do you have any updated comments on this company ? For the past year, it seems to have held steady in the $1.00 range. If it can survive the low price environment it should do well. Do you agree ?

Q: Hello- is DBC one of those ETFS based on commodity futures which will erode in value even given steady commodity prices, if held for more than a month or two?
Is there another Commodity ETF which you can suggest which can be held for a year or more without this erosion? Does one need to buy a commodity stock based ETF? Any recommendations in Canada and the US?
Thanks
