Today, The CRB Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Prices continues this long-standing tradition, by offering a comprehensive guide to commodity and financial prices. For its wealth of information and the authority of its sources, The CRB Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Prices stands alone as the guide to intelligent trading in the commodity and financial markets.

"I find the CRB books my best source of information on commodities. This Encyclopedia is terrific for anyone interested in commodities. I have every CRB Yearbook since 1971, so I know."

From the Inside Flap
This unique reference guide provides the "big picture" for anyone dealing in the commodity or financial markets by delivering long-term charts and written historical analysis, as well as supporting data on a companion CD-ROM.

No other source provides the long-term perspective of The CRB Encyclopedia of Commodity and Financial Prices. This book contains a wealth of authoritative data, all compiled by the Commodity Research Bureau (CRB)-the organization of record for the entire commodity industry. The Encyclopedia is essential for anyone who needs commodity and financial charts, analysis, and data in one quick and easy-to-use reference book.

This volume contains:

Long-Term Price Charts-A complete array of long-term price charts are included for all the major commodity and financial markets, including energy, grains and oilseeds, foods and fibers, meats, commodity indexes, U.S. stock indexes, U.S. interest rates, and currencies. Long-term historical price charts go back twenty years or more, and there are charts for many markets shown on an inflation-adjusted basis as well, providing a unique perspective.
The History of the Commodity and Financial Markets-A brief written history is included for each major commodity and financial market sector, providing easy-to-understand background information on why the markets moved in the past and illuminating the factors that are likely to move the markets in the future. Also included is an annotated list of the key world and market events that have driven the commodity and financial markets over the decades.
Data on CD-ROM-A companion CD-ROM is included containing comprehensive commodity and financial price data history that, by itself, could be prohibitively expensive to obtain separately from other sources. Many of the long-term data series are not available from any source other than CRB. The CD-ROM allows you to view and customize the price charts within the book as well as view or export data for use with your own analysis programs.
