These assets are traditionally valued as a hedge against inflation because their prices are not directly tied to public equity markets. Instead, the value of commodities is driven by supply and demand dynamics; as demand increases, so do prices, potentially leading to significant profits for investors. The trading of commodities is a longstanding practice, with origins tracing back thousands of years. Notable historical examples include the early formal commodities exchanges in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and Osaka, Japan during the 16th and 17th centuries, respectively. The practice was further institutionalized with the establishment of the Chicago Board of Trade in the mid-19th century, which pioneered commodity futures trading.
