Segments in Commodities Market
• Over the Counter (OTC) Market /Spot Market - Here the participation is restricted to people who are involved with that commodity say the farmer, processor, wholesaler etc • Exchange Based Market. - Here derivative trading takes place through exchange-based markets with standardized contracts, settlements etc
Amity Business School
Derivatives
• A commodity futures contract is a type of derivative, or financial contract, in which two parties agree to transact a set of financial instruments or physical commodities for delivery at a particular price at a later date. • If you buy a commodity contract, you are basically agreeing to buy something, for a set price, that a seller has not yet produced. • But participating in the commodity market does not necessarily mean that you will be responsible for receiving or delivering large inventories of physical commodities, • Buyers and sellers in the futures market primarily enter into futures contracts to hedge risk or speculate rather than delivery (which is the primary activity of the cash/spot market). That is why Commodities are used as financial instruments by not only producers and consumers but also speculators.
Amity Business School
• A forward contract requires a buyer and a seller to take and make a delivery of a definite quantity of a particular commodity at a future specified date. • Such contracts are traded on an exchange, which provides guarantee for all futures dealings, and parties can "hedge" at suitable levels. • Hedging lessens risk since it involves the purchase or sale of a commodity with the intention of counterbalancing the profit or loss of another investment. • Therefore, any loss on the previous investment will be hedged, or compensated, by a matching profit from the hedging instrument.
Forward Contract
Amity Business School
Players Involved in Commodities Trading
• There are three different types of players in the commodity markets: • Commercials: The entities involved in the production, processing or merchandising of a commodity. For example, both the corn farmer and Kellogg’s are commercials. Commercials account for most of the trading in commodity markets. • Large Speculators: A group of investors that pool their money together to reduce risk and increase gain. Like mutual funds in the stock market, large speculators have money managers that make investment decisions for the investors as a whole. • Small Speculators: Individual commodity traders who trade on their own accounts or through a commodity broker. Both small and large speculators are known for their ability to shake up the commodities market.
Amity Business School
Speculation & Arbitrage
• Speculation: Speculators are people who are prepared to bear risks in anticipation of earning profits. Markets are granted liquidity by speculators and it is hard to conceive of a futures market devoid of speculators. • Arbitrage: Arbitrage involves buying a commodity at a low price and instantly selling it for a higher price in another market. Thus, traders can profit from arbitrage opportunities occurring due to price differences between two exchanges.

Derivatives
• A commodity futures contract is a type of derivative, or financial contract, in which two parties agree to transact a set of financial instruments or physical commodities for delivery at a particular price at a later date. • If you buy a commodity contract, you are basically agreeing to buy something, for a set price, that a seller has not yet produced. • But participating in the commodity market does not necessarily mean that you will be responsible for receiving or delivering large inventories of physical commodities, • Buyers and sellers in the futures market primarily enter into futures contracts to hedge risk or speculate rather than delivery (which is the primary activity of the cash/spot market). That is why Commodities are used as financial instruments by not only producers and consumers but also speculators.

• A forward contract requires a buyer and a seller to take and make a delivery of a definite quantity of a particular commodity at a future specified date. • Such contracts are traded on an exchange, which provides guarantee for all futures dealings, and parties can "hedge" at suitable levels. • Hedging lessens risk since it involves the purchase or sale of a commodity with the intention of counterbalancing the profit or loss of another investment. • Therefore, any loss on the previous investment will be hedged, or compensated, by a matching profit from the hedging instrument.

Players Involved in Commodities Trading
• There are three different types of players in the commodity markets: • Commercials: The entities involved in the production, processing or merchandising of a commodity. For example, both the corn farmer and Kellogg’s are commercials. Commercials account for most of the trading in commodity markets. • Large Speculators: A group of investors that pool their money together to reduce risk and increase gain. Like mutual funds in the stock market, large speculators have money managers that make investment decisions for the investors as a whole. • Small Speculators: Individual commodity traders who trade on their own accounts or through a commodity broker. Both small and large speculators are known for their ability to shake up the commodities market.

Speculation & Arbitrage
• Speculation: Speculators are people who are prepared to bear risks in anticipation of earning profits. Markets are granted liquidity by speculators and it is hard to conceive of a futures market devoid of speculators. • Arbitrage: Arbitrage involves buying a commodity at a low price and instantly selling it for a higher price in another market. Thus, traders can profit from arbitrage opportunities occurring due to price differences between two exchanges.
