  • Coal as a Commodity : Thermal vs Coking Coal Explained | YES SECURITIES

    Coal powers roughly 34% of the world's electricity and makes the steel behind every building, car, and ship - and despite talk of its decline, the global coal market is worth $1.09 trillion and still growing. In this episode of Let's Talk Commodities, YES SECURITIES, Rahul Saini traces coal from ancient China and the Industrial Revolution to today's record-breaking demand, and breaks down the crucial difference between thermal coal (power generation) and coking coal (steel-making) - a distinction every investor needs to understand.

    We dive into China's coal paradox - the world's fastest builder of solar and wind, yet still adding tens of gigawatts of new coal power every year - and India's own billion-ton production milestone, led by Coal India Limited, the world's largest coal producer. Learn why India still imports coking coal despite record domestic output, how the West Asia conflict pushed gas-starved utilities in Asia back to coal overnight, and why coal's supply chain - unlike oil's - passes through no contested chokepoint.

    We also unpack the launch of India's new MCX Coal Exchange, the twist of coal fly ash as a potential source of rare earth minerals, and why the clean energy transition still runs on coal-made steel.

    Whether you're tracking Newcastle FOB, Rotterdam API2, or India's new coal benchmark, this episode decodes why coal remains one of the world's most structurally important - and least understood - commodities.

  • Crude Oil Explained: Global Market, India's Role & How to Invest | Let's Talk Commodities

    Crude oil isn't just what powers your car - it's the world's most geopolitical commodity, shaping inflation, currencies, and global power.

  • Gold as a Commodity : From Ancient Empires to Modern Portfolios | YES SECURITIES

    Gold is in the middle of one of its most extraordinary runs in history - setting record after record in 2025 and 2026, with central banks buying over 1,000 tons of it for three years straight, a pace not seen since the 1950s. In this episode of Let's Talk Commodities, YES SECURITIES with Rahul Saini breaks down why gold is having its moment, from the West Asia conflict and a weaker rupee to the gold-to-oil ratio that signals when the rally might cool.

    We dive into India's gold paradox - the world's second-largest gold consumer at 802.8 tons a year yet mining almost none of it domestically (just ~2 tons from Karnataka's Hutti Gold Mines). Learn why gold is India's second-largest import bill after crude oil, why PM Modi Ji called for "economic patriotism" on gold buying in 2026, and how the shift from jewellery to investment-grade gold - via ETFs, Sovereign Gold Bonds, gold mutual funds, and NSE's new Electronic Gold Receipts - is reshaping how Indians hold the metal.

    Whether you're tracking MCX gold futures or deciding how much gold belongs in your portfolio, this episode decodes gold's 6,000-year role as a store of value - and what a 5-10% allocation could mean for you.

  • Copper Commodity Explained: Global Demand, India's Role & How to Invest | Let's Talk Commodities

    Copper powers EVs, renewable energy, and modern infrastructure - making it one of the world's most watched industrial commodities, often called "Dr. Copper" for signaling the health of the global economy. 

    In this episode of Let's Talk Commodities by YES SECURITIES with Rahul Saini we break down what drives copper prices - from mining supply and China's demand to the global energy transition.

    We dive into India's copper story - rising demand from EVs, solar, and infrastructure, even as India remains a net importer of refined copper.  In the United States, Copper futures trade on COMEX, part of CME Group and also on the Multi Commodity Exchange of India, Indian investors can gain exposure through commodities and copper-linked equities.
