Any market can become very worthwhile to trade for a year or two at a time.  
Take a look at the metals in 1979.  The ideal solution would be to somehow 
measure the profit potential of all the markets all the time and then move 
from market to market as opportunities arise.  The hard part of course is 
spotting the opportunity before the move is over.  The usual approach by well 
capitalized professionals is to try to trade all the markets all the time.  I 
think there must be a better way.  I'm still working on it.
