CHICAGO, Jan. 5, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PFGBEST Research, the analytical arm of one of the nation's top Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs), has published a FREE outlook covering the gamut of commodity and financial market sectors to identify what the company's Research Division sees as key market fundamentals and technical objectives ahead in the new year.

"Our analysts examine their sectors in routine blogs, available FREE, anytime on the PFGBEST.com website. But in our semi-annual PFGBEST Research Outlook publications, they delve with a much more enriched perspective into macro political conditions, global economics, and consumer decisions on what they can afford and where they (and governments!) must draw the line on pricing," said PFGBEST President and Chief Operating Officer Russ Wasendorf, Jr.

"Through their many years of experience on the trading floor and as market technicians and commercial brokers, our PFGBEST analysts are extremely talented at citing seasonal trends with clear regard for whether break-outs are likely, based on world population, supply and demand factors, and the desire for (and ability to pay for) commodities, given the rise and fall of the currencies needed for international exchange," Wasendorf said.

Ten analytical reports comprise the PFGBEST Research Outlook 2012. They include analysis of general currencies; a view from the institutional foreign exchange transaction desk; interest rates; stock indices, precious metals; energy markets; grains; livestock markets; and soft commodities (coffee, cocoa and sugar.)

Here are 10 topics addressed in the PFGBEST Research Outlook 2012:

  8. Robin Rosenberg sees a long-term bullish set-up for coffee, and strength again in cocoa and sugar, while cotton will languish in sideways to lower trading band.
