Commodity markets (from oil and gas to metals and agriculture) have been on a rollercoaster in recent years, driven by shifting inflation dynamics, geopolitics, and changing investor sentiment. With so much flux, can commodities still serve as an effective diversifier in a global portfolio?
In this episode of investment uncut, we speak to Chris Watling, CEO and Chief Market Strategist at Longview Economics, to unpack where we are in the commodity cycle, whether talk of a new “supercycle” is justified, and how investors should approach commodities today. We discuss misconceptions, the impact of global tensions on trade flows, and where the biggest opportunities and risks may lie over the next few years.
