Mining Funds / Commodities continue to move opposite the rest of the equity market

Anyone hedging into the mining, commodity or emerging market (Latin America) space?

Reallocating profits to emerging market funds (which often are commodity rich), commodity funds / ETFs, or pm/mining funds...TGLDX, USAGX, BGEIX, etc.?

    Hi bee. Yes, through SIGIX, and more directly with SCHN and AA. And, I guess a little in FAAFX through its IPMLF holding.

    Emerging markets rose a little today, but PM miners got hammered...again (2-3%). Bought a little PM miners at the closing.

    Looking down list of commoditiy ETF_ETNs, looks like nearly everything is down below 200 day avg...coffee, silver, cotton, precious metals, aluminum, natural gas, gold, nickel, base metals, oil, sugar:

    Suspect this situation is good for consumers and companies that can add value separate from commodity prices.
