COW iPath Series B Bloomberg Livestock Subindex TR ETN

Although the markets have been pretty choppy lately, we have seen strength in one segment of the investing world; commodities. Several natural resources have surged in recent trading, led by some soaring products in the agricultural commodity world.

In fact, the PowerShares DB Agricultural Fund (DBA) has actually gained more than 13% in the past one month time frame as supply issues have rocked several resources in this segment. This supply problem is especially apparent when you drill down into some of the leaders in this corner of the market such as the following 4 agricultural commodities which have all added more than 10% in the past month:

ETF/ETN	One Month Performance
iPath Dow Jones UBS Livestock ETN (COW)	+10.1%
Teucrium Wheat ETF (WEAT)	+14.2%
iPath Dow Jones UBS Sugar ETN (SGG)	+10.1%
iPath Dow Jones UBS Coffee ETN (JO)	+47.3%
