Here are five remarkable diagrams in the global raw material markets.

oil

Oil dealers will meet in London against the background of a strangely oppressed market. The flash of the political changes and trade measures by US President Donald Trump as well as the uncertainty in connection with the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East have crude oil in a narrow area and recently a measure of volatility in the lowest since July locked up a narrow area. Industry leaders will probably discuss an upcoming Opec+ “declaration of whether they should bring back production and all other catalysts that could break the market out of its goal.

Energy industry

BP PLC is located in the crosshair of the world's most famous activist investor, Elliott Investment Management. It has built up a great participation in the fighting oil company and demands transformative changes, including the most important cost reductions, financial sales and an exit from renewable electricity. After months of waiting times, investors are expected to hear by Murray also by Chief Officer on Wednesday. He will reveal a new strategy that he promised to “fundamentally reset the company”.

corn

The annual Outlook forum of the US Agricultural Ministry delivers the first widely observed estimate of the area area for American plants such as corn, soybeans, wheat and cotton. Farm Lender Cobank sees Corn Acres in the highest in five years. Corn is the top harvest in the USA, the world's largest producer and exporter of the grain.

Gold

The US dollar prices have increased through their international benchmarks in recent months, since gold can be included in Trump's comprehensive tariff measures. While many market participants do not expect the precious metal to be imposed on their money status, the huge price difference promotes a rush among dealers, dealers and investors to send gold to the USA to record the premium. This has led to an increase in the Bullion inventory at COM warehouses, with the inventory rising by more than 20 million ounces since the US election.
