Commodities consist of natural gas, crude oil, precious metals, spices and other commodities which are found in some specific regions and can be obtained in a limited quantity only. Therefore, the commodities market deals with buying, selling or trading of these products.
Types of commodities
Hard commodities
Precious metals and substances like natural gas and crude oil come into this category
Soft commodities
Agricultural products and livestock and meat are considered as commodities in this category.
Every country has its own resources of both hard and soft commodities, however, at times, when a country has a resource in excess, they can trade it and earn profits by selling it to other countries. In this way, perishable commodities are fully utilised without being wasted.
Some countries which do not have some resources or have limited quantities of those resources can purchase them in the commodities market.
The commodities market can also be combined with the futures market to make profits, by analysing the future prices of products and if they will increase or decrease according to the current price.
