- What is a commodity?
A physical substance, such as
food, grains, and metals, which is interchangeable with another product of the
same type, and which investors buy or sell, usually through futures contracts.
The price of the commodity is subject to supply and demand. Risk is actually the
reason exchange trading of the basic agricultural products began. For example, a
farmer risks the cost of producing a product ready for market at sometime in the
future because he doesn't know what the selling price will be.
