Press Release Summary: Soft and agricultural commodities are back on most investors'
radars due to the ever-strong demand for these types of commodities.

Press Release Body: Evaluating New Investment Opportunities in the Ever-Changing
Agricultural Market

Soft and agricultural commodities are back on most investors' radars due to the
ever-strong demand for these types of commodities. Paired together are changes of
food types in emerging markets, droughts and soil erosion, and the increase in
biofuels production, among other issues. As a result we have seen incredible growth
in returns on investments in soft and agricultural commodities which is opening new
doors for investors and making them reconsider their investment portfolios.

Soft commodity prices are rising and are expected to continue the growing trend in
the next several years. Large investments in biofuel capacities, rising gas prices
and ever-strong ethanol production are only a few reasons why it is crucial to grasp
the current trends of this sector and the impact of its growth on the entire
commodities market.

Finance IQ's Soft and Agricultural Commodities Investment Summit will gather leading
experts on soft and agricultural commodities including James Moser of Commodity
Futures Trading Commission, Tyler Stevens of Common fund Asset Management Company,
Kevin Rich of Deutsche Bank (DB), Maximilian Tomei of INOKS Capital, John Caupert of
National Corn-To-Ethanol Research Center and Mel Jones of American Council on
Renewable Energy (ACORE) to answer the key questions regarding the strategies of
investing in soft and agricultural commodities, the state of the international
markets and best practices of incorporating agricultural commodities into the
investment portfolio. This senior-level summit will stir discussions between key
investors and decision makers from agricultural commodities traders, pension funds,
endowments, charitable trusts, wealth management firms, hedge funds, investment
managers, and government and regulatory officials to explore the direction of the
agricultural market.
