What are Commodities?
Commodities are raw materials that can be bought and sold. Commodities such as metals and energy are used as inputs to produce goods and services.
Metals (gold, silver, copper, palladium, platinum) and energy products (crude oil, natural gas) are referred to as “hard commodities” and can be mined or extracted.
Because of their role in the economy and their nature, the price of commodities moves independently of other assets, such as stocks, and may therefore offer a valuable diversification for traders and investors.
Metals and energy commodities are essential for the industrial production. They are widely used by manufacturers, which makes their price movements relevant to the global economy.

HOW-TO
Trade Commodities
Buying and selling commodities doesn’t require you to buy or sell the physical product. You’re simply speculating on the changes in price, just like you would with other financial derivatives.
Commodities are finite resources. Therefore, contrary to many other assets, the price is primarily affected by changes in supply and demand. When the supply increases, the prices tend to go down. If the supply decreases, the prices might go up.
At the same time, the supply and demand are affected by several factors, such as weather conditions, economic activities, geopolitical changes.
