About Commodities Markets
Commodities markets are places where people buy and sell physical goods like agricultural products, energy products, precious metals, and other items. These markets allow producers and consumers to exchange these goods for money.

These contracts can be traded over-the-counter or on regulated exchanges, like the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or Intercontinental Exchange.
