Trading Economics Commodities

The commodities are the goods that are used in the production of other goods. They are also called "raw materials". These goods can be natural resources or manufactured products. A commodity is a basic good that is used as an input to produce other products. Commodities can be tangible items like metals, grains, and energy sources, or intangible assets like currency and shares of stock. The main difference between trading economics commodities and trading stocks is that with stocks you purchase ownership of the company by buying their shares, while with commodities you only purchase ownership of the raw materials.
