Commodity Trading
Commodity Trading
|
There are four categories of commodity trading:
1. Agriculture (sugar, cotton, coffee, cocoa, rice, wheat, soybeans, corn)
2. Energy (gasoline, natural gas, heating oil, crude oil)
3. Livestock (feeder cattle, live cattle, pork bellies, lean hogs)
4. Metals (copper, platinum, silver, gold)
Commodity trading relies upon agreed standards so that trades can take place without actually seeing the commodity you're trading. That's to protect the investor from buying corn futures only to discover that the corn he or she bought was diseased, inferior, or otherwise unacceptable.
Technology, market demands, and certain countries' economic development influence the price of the commodities traded. In recent years, growth of new economic powers India and China have contributed to declining availability of oil (a factor which is also influenced by OPEC). But the basic economic principles of supply and demand typically follow commodities markets.
Commodity trading involves following statistics and things like livestock patterns. The outbreak of disease or other disruptions can cause various investing tactics to emerge, since many agricultural and livestock options are fairly predictable and stable.
In bearish or volatile markets, investors often quickly transfer money to precious metals like gold, which long term have been seen as dependable investments. Investors losing money in stocks can often make good returns in commodity trading. Commodities like gold are often used by investors to hedge their bets against currency devaluation or high inflation. Commodity trading is risky because it can be affected by events that can't be predicted, such as natural disasters. No more than 10% of a portfolio should be allocated to commodities in most cases.
