Inside the Markets
Commodities Assets
rooted in the real economy
The commodities market represents trading in physical resources that form the foundation of the global economy. It includes energy products, metals, and agricultural goods, reflecting real-world supply and demand dynamics.
Commodity price formation is driven by production costs, inventory levels, geopolitical factors, weather conditions, and global economic cycles. Futures markets play a central role in price discovery and risk transfer.
From a systems perspective, commodities exhibit distinct cyclical behavior and regime shifts. Individual commodity instruments serve as core inputs for inflation hedging, diversification, and macro-oriented systematic strategies.
