The commodities roller coaster: Liquidity and market structure in volatile markets

0

About

Commodity markets never rest. The recent fall in oil prices and renewed expansionary monetary policies are increasing uncertainty on how these markets will once again react to economic and financial instability. This environment comes on the back of a more generalised reduction or stagnation in commodity prices and an ongoing policy overhaul. How is commodity market structure reacting to those changes? Is price volatility affecting hedging opportunities? Is the new price environment reducing appetite for policy action? How are financial reforms developing in this area? Have banks lost interest in commodities trading, and why?
