This page provides a snapshot of the commodity complex for investors. The left chart shows the standardized prices of individual commodities that make up the Bloomberg Commodity Index. The current price is represented by the blue diamond and the grey bars represent the range of prices each commodity has seen over the past 10 years on a daily basis. This is meant to show that many commodity prices are close to their 10 year lows. The chart on the top right compares gold prices in both nominal and real terms, both of which have a history of dramatic price movements. The bottom right chart highlights the relationship between commodity prices and inflation, with the former typically changing 20 times as much as the latter.
