Like all commodities, pork bellies are extremely volatile and can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.  The fact that you have to ask this question makes me extremely skeptical of your level of experience and hence, suitability.  \n\nIf you absolutely NEED commodities exposure, limit it ro 5-10% of your portfolio, and buy it through the DWS Scudder Commodity Securities fund (SKNRX), which contains exposure to all the commodities on the futures exchange, and does it in a 50% less volatile way due to the unique commodity/stock 50-50 makeup of the fund's portfolio, unlike either the Pimco or Oppenheimer funds.\n\nHope this helps, and be careful!\n--J.

Canada is most welcome to trade with whomever they so choose in the world market - except for perhaps some of the rogue states.  However, Canada ends up trading about four-fifths of its exports (including beef) with the United States. \n\nCanada ends up trading with its neighbor to the south because that's where the demand is. The United States is a huge beef market in production, consumption, import and export. Canadian cattle is reknown for its leaner, consistent and competitively priced product.  The shorter distance also means that rail can keep transportation prices to a minimum. The United States also offers a more stable market with fairly consistent demand compared to smaller markets abroad.  A case in point has been the Japanese, who are voracious consumers of high quality beef - but have been boom to bust consumers depending on BSE scars. \n\nThe Canadians are welcome to trade on the open market - but that also means they are in for tough competition from the Argentinians, Australians, Europeans and former Soviet Republics.

It is especially important to increase awareness regarding various derivative instruments like futures, options etc. amongst the investing community at large. \n\nThe government is looking into regulating the commodities futures markets as well. In order to facilitate this, the Government is examining the possibility of an amendment to the Securities Contracts Regulation Act 1957 and SEBI Act 1992.\n\nThe commodity markets are just beginning to break out of controls and restrictions and are poised for growth in the next few years. It is believed that in its current form, the FMC may not be able to handle the anticipated explosion in activity in commodity futures.\n\nFor a full exploration of this situation, I recommend the following article: http://www.hindu.com/2004/08/30/stories/2004083000661400.htm

Cattle (called cows in vernacular usage, or kine [archaic]) are domesticated ungulates, a member of the subfamily Bovinae of the family Bovidae. They are raised as livestock for meat (called beef and veal), dairy products (milk), leather and as draught animals (pulling carts, plows and the like). In some countries, such as India, they are subject to religious ceremonies and respect. It is estimated that there are 1.3 billion head of cattle in the world today [1].\n\nCattle were originally identified by Carolus Linnaeus as three separate species. These were Bos taurus, the European cattle, including similar types from Africa and Asia; Bos indicus, the zebu; and the extinct Bos primigenius, the aurochs. The aurochs is ancestral to both zebu and European cattle. More recently these three have increasingly been grouped as one species, sometimes using the names Bos primigenius taurus, Bos primigenius indicus and Bos primigenius primigenius. Complicating the matter is the ability of cattle to interbreed with other closely related species. Hybrid individuals and even breeds exist, not only between European cattle and zebu but also with yaks, banteng, gaur, and bison, a cross-genera hybrid. For example, genetic testing of the Dwarf Lulu breed, the only humpless "Bos taurus-type" cattle in Nepal, found them to be a mix of European cattle, zebu and yak. Cattle cannot successfully be bred with water buffalo or African buffalo. (See aurochs for the history of domestication, and zebu for peculiarities of that group.)
