Aside from looming potential war in Iran, the commodities market is in an early step of 20-year bull market. Jim Rogers has predicted this long-term bull run way back in 1999, which then actually started off in 2001. Thereof we are only 6 years from the start, and still 10 to 15 years away to the end game. So, we might see gold price climb to $1K-1.5K and nickel price to $50K-70K. Or even the "small cap" tin price could go "crazy" to shoot for $35K mark, the highest inflation-adjusted price human race ever recorded for tin.
