hedging against commodities

[badabing]

Copper has really ballooned over the last year

and has to be one of the most overbought commodities there is in light of loan calls and lending stops in China
http://www.google.com/finance?q=scop might be a suitable hedge for anyone with exposure to commodities. Anyone in commodities at the moment and feeling they might want to hedge?

I used to work on the London Metal Exchange dealing in the Metals Commodities. Unless one has a full knowledge of the business of trading in Commodities and / or a pot of Gold to burn you are entering a very risky market. If it goes right you could make a lot of money, but if it goes wrong you stand to lose everything.
