CRB Spot Commodity Index at New High

October 4, 2010 Calgary

The Commodity Research Bureau Sport Index has experienced an


approximately 60% recovery to around 485, a new all time high, surpassing its
previous high of 481 set in July 2008.  

Why such a rapid rebound in commodity prices?  Enquirica believes these price
movements are being driven by superior supply & demand fundamentals,
particularly in agriculture and energy, and a healthy dose of nominal re-pricing to
offset ongoing currency devaluation. Some examples over the past year:

 Agricultural Raw Materials: 24%


 Industrial Inputs Index: 25%
 Metals Price Index: 26%
 Coffee: 45%
 Barley: 32%
 Oranges: 35%
 Beef: 23%
 Pork: 68%
 Salmon: 30%
 Sugar: 24%
 Wool: 20%
 Cotton: 40%
 Palm Oil: 26%
 Hides: 25%
 Rubber: 62%
 Iron Ore: 103%
