Commodities trading
Commodities trading involves buying and selling raw materials such as oil, natural gas, metals (both base and precious), and agricultural products like wheat, coffee, and sugar. It provides a way to diversify beyond stocks, allowing traders to speculate on the future prices of these commodities and potentially profit from price fluctuations.
What are commodities?
Commodities are essential raw materials that form the foundation of global trade and supply chains. They can be categorized into four main groups:
Agricultural Commodities
These include food crops such as cocoa, cotton, corn, coffee, livestock like pigs and cattle, and industrial crops such as palm oil and lumber.
Energy Commodities
This category encompasses natural gas, crude oil, gasoline, coal, uranium, ethanol, and electricity.
Metal Commodities
These cover both base metals (such as copper, iron ore, zinc, aluminum, nickel, steel) and precious metals (like gold, silver, palladium, platinum).
Environmental Commodities
This includes commodities related to environmental markets, such as renewable energy certificates, carbon emissions allowances, and white certificates.
Commodity trading plays a pivotal role in global economics, influencing industries ranging from manufacturing and agriculture to energy production and environmental sustainability. Price movements in commodity markets have widespread implications for economies worldwide, impacting costs for consumers and businesses alike.
