  • Financialization and the Returns to Commodity Investments Scott Main
    Financialization and the Returns to Commodity Investments Scott Main, Scott H. Irwin, Dwight R. Sanders, and Aaron Smith* April 2018 Forthcoming in the Journal of Commodity Markets *Scott Main is a former graduate student in the Department of Agricultural and Consumer Economics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Scott H. Irwin is the Lawrence J. Norton Chair of Agricultural Marketing, Department of Agricultural and Consumer Economics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Dwight R. Sanders is a Professor, Department of Agribusiness Economics, Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. Aaron Smith is a Professor in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, University of California-Davis. Financialization and the Returns to Commodity Investments Abstract Commodity futures investment grew rapidly after their popularity exploded—along with commodity prices—in the mid-2000s. Numerous individuals and institutions embraced alternative investments for their purported diversification benefits and equity-like returns. We investigate whether the “financialization” of commodity futures markets reduced the risk premiums available to long-only investors in commodities. While energy futures markets generally exhibit a decline in risk premiums after 2004, premiums in all but one non-energy futures market actually increased over the same time period. Overall, the average unconditional return to individual commodity futures markets is approximately equal to zero before and after financialization. Key words: commodity, financialization, futures prices, index fund, investments, risk premium, storable JEL categories: D84, G12, G13, G14, Q13, Q41 Financialization and the Returns to Commodity Investments Introduction Several influential studies published in the last 15 years (e.g., Gorton and Rouwenhorst 2006, Erb and Harvey 2006) concluded that long-only commodity futures investments generate equity-like returns.1 This undoubtedly contributed to the rise of commodity futures from relative obscurity to a common feature in today’s investing landscape.

  • What Drives Commodity Price Booms and Busts?
    What Drives Commodity Price Booms and Busts? David S. Jacks and Martin Stuermer Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas Research Department Working Paper 1614 What drives commodity price booms and busts?* David S. Jacks (Simon Fraser University and NBER) Martin Stuermer (Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, Research Department) November 2016 Abstract What drives commodity price booms and busts? We provide evidence on the dynamic effects of commodity demand shocks, commodity supply shocks, and inventory demand shocks on real commodity prices. In particular, we analyze a new data set of price and production levels for 12 agricultural, metal, and soft commodities from 1870 to 2013. We identify differences in the type of shock driving prices of the various types of commodities and relate these differences to commodity types which reflect differences in long-run elasticities of supply and demand. Our results show that demand shocks strongly dominate supply shocks. * The views in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas or the Federal Reserve System. Jacks gratefully acknowledges the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada for research support. We are grateful for comments and suggestions from participants at the Summer Meeting of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists, at the Bank of Canada and Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas joint conference on commodity price cycles, at the Norges Bank/CAMP workshop, and at seminars at the Bundesbank and the European Central Bank. 1 JEL classification: E30, Q31, Q33, N50 Keywords: Commodity prices, natural resources, structural VAR 1.

  • Commodity Option Pricing Is a Must-Read for Option Traders, Risk Managers and Quantita- Tive Analysts
    “It has been very hard to find a comprehensive option pricing book cover- ing all exchange-traded commodities, until Iain Clark’s book. Commodity Option Pricing is a must-read for option traders, risk managers and quantita- tive analysts. The author combines academic rigor with real-world examples. Practitioners can find an extremely useful toolkit in option pricing andan excellent introduction to various commodities.” Joseph Y. Chen, Chief, Market Analytics, Nexen “Being himself a practitioner with a wealth of experience, Iain knows what is relevant to the daily work of commodities trading desks. He uses his remarkable pedagogical skills to develop the reader’s intuition for the mod- els and products before delving into the practicalities of the commodities markets. Many of the details covered in this book cannot be found elsewhere in the literature. I am pleased to recommend this book to quants and traders, who will soon find themselves relying on it in their daily work.” Paul Bilokon, Director, Deutsche Bank “Option pricing analytics for trading commodity derivatives can be quite different from those of equity and fixed income derivatives. This book fills a gap in current literature by presenting a comprehensive treatise on the risk characteristics associated with pricing and hedging commodity derivatives. The author strikes a fine balance between option pricing theory and financial practice in the markets. The materials are succinctly written, with clear and insightful descriptions of the features of various commodity markets and state-of-the-art pricing models. This book is destined to be a valuable prac- tical guide for practitioners and a useful academic reference for researchers in trading and understanding commodities derivatives.” Yue Kuen Kwok, Professor, Department of Mathematics, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Commodity Option Pricing For other titles in the Wiley Finance series please see www.wiley.com/finance Commodity Option Pricing A Practitioner’s Guide Iain J.

  • 3 Excellence in Energy Trading 3
    2006 BEGAN WITH Russia cutting off gas supplies to the Ukraine and is ending with governments and others digesting the ramifications of the International Energy Agency’s World Energy Outlook, 2006 and the Stern Review on the economics of climate change. Security of supply and environmental concerns now dominate energy market and political agendas. Debate has continued on a Kyoto successor – following the UN Climate Change Conference in Nairobi (COP 12) on strengthening the framework for the years following Kyoto’s initial commitment period (2008-2012). Meanwhile, oil prices reached a nominal high of over US$78 a barrel on July 14th before coming down sharply in the following months. And two of the most active hedge funds engaged in energy derivatives trading were recently forced to liquidate their holdings after experiencing large losses in natural gas price and volatility spread trades. The European Commission has also been busy in establishing better control of the EU ETS following a price collapse earlier in the year because of the over-allocation of permits. It recently announced real cuts in a number of allocation plans. And in January next year, both the Energy and Competition Commissioners will give their verdicts on how the EU intends to structure energy policy and regulation into the future. Meanwhile, the developing world continues its voracious demand for energy with the IEA forecasting that global energy demand will increase by one half between now and 2030 – an average annual rate of 1.6%. Now in their fifth year, the Energy Business Awards reward excellence in a number of key energy business disciplines – to recognise those companies that are making a positive mark on the way energy business is conducted, trading risks mitigated, precious energy resources utilised, energy systems developed, environmental degradation curtailed, energy technology advanced, and energy production and consumption distributed more efficiently and ethically.
