Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Charles Sizemore]

  But be careful here. Given the abundant new supplies of natural gas coming to market, natural gas prices should stay depressed for a long time to come, this short-term spike notwithstanding. Another factor to consider is contango, which is common problem for commodity ETFs and ETNs. When a market is in contango, investors lose money every month when they roll over their futures contracts in what is called a ��egative roll yield.��This might be tolerable when prices are rising rapidly. But it can come as a shock to the uninitiated trader. Contango has been a major drag on the returns of the United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG), for instance.
