  • Commodities Are Not Stocks [View article]
    The futures price is more than an insurance. It is a guarantee that another party is [committed] to take delivery at an agreed upon price at some point in time in future.

    Unless the world stops eating corn, rice; stop using oil, cease to build buildings, then the futures contract becomes worthless.

    The main point to take away is, commodities are [tradable]; and this feature by itself puts it on the same playing field as REITs, stocks, bonds, currencies, TIPS and all other asset classes.

    Why else does a commodities exchanges around the world exists for?
