Hard, soft commodity prices to continue rising

PETALING JAYA: Booming prices of both hard and soft commodities, which had greatly benefited the Malaysian market in 2007, look set to continue in 2008,  

TA Securities, in its strategy report for 2008, said high commodity prices were here to stay simply because “the momentum of factors that drove commodity prices up in the first place does not look likely to decelerate significantly anytime soon.”
