A snapshot of the commodity prices as of the end of last week. Where commodity prices move gives clues about inflation and the strength of demand in the global economy. Energy and agricultural futures of late are showing an uptrend while metals have been quite consistently down. It's a mixed bag of sentiments complicated by the Russia-Ukraine conflicts that can hinder global efforts to curb inflation. While increasing the rates can slow demand down, it can't resolve political issues. And climate change that results in "unprecedented" weather being something we see every year now is not helping either.
