A dynamic strategy to rotate capital systematically into world's strongest-performing commodities

Investment Rationale

  • At any given time, global commodity performance is driven by a constantly shifting mix of supply-and-demand conditions, inventory levels, production changes, weather patterns, geopolitical developments and global growth. Because these factors affect individual commodities at different times and in different ways, predicting the next market leader is notoriously difficult. Rather than trying to forecast these complex drivers, this strategy uses a rules-based momentum approach to objectively identify which commodities are currently performing best.
  • The strategy quantitatively selects the commodity exposures experiencing strong, persistent price momentum relative to their peers and broader commodity benchmarks. By systematically holding the commodities demonstrating the strongest recent relative performance and rotating out of those that begin to fade, the portfolio dynamically adapts to changing commodity-market conditions without relying on subjective predictions.
