Powershares also offers at least eight ETFs based on commodity prices. They include agriculturals (DBA), Base Metals (DBB), Energy (DBE), Precious Metals (DBP), and the DB Commodities Tracking Fund (DBC) which is a commodity basket. Chart 9 shows that commodity fund surging to a new record high today which matched a similar move by the CRB Index. Agriculaturals continue to lead the commodity advance (Chart 10). Precious metals and energy were also strong, with gold gaining $13 and oil jumping 4%. Although industrial metals like copper have been the weakest commodity group over the past year, even they had a strong week.(Murphy 2008.2-08)
