NYMEX Division light, sweet crude oil futures contract is the world's most liquid forum for crude oil trading, as well as the world's largest-volume futures contract trading on a physical commodity. Because of its excellent liquidity and price transparency, the contract is used as a principal international pricing benchmark. The contract trades in units of 1,000 barrels, and the delivery point is Cushing, Oklahoma, which is also accessible to the international spot markets via pipelines. The contract provides for delivery of several grades of domestic and internationally traded foreign crudes, and serves the diverse needs of the physical market. Light, sweet crudes are preferred by refiners because of their low sulfur content and relatively high yields of high-value products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, and jet fuel.

fields in the Brent and Ninian systems located in the North Sea. Brent Crude Oil is ideal for making gasoline and middle distillates, both of which are consumed in large quantities in Northwest Europe, where Brent blend crude oil is typically refined. The ICE Brent Crude futures contract is a deliverable contract based on EFP delivery with an option to cash settle. The name 'Brent' comes from the naming policy of Shell Oil, which originally named all of its fields after birds (in this case the Brent Goose). Oil production from Europe, Africa and the Middle East flowing West tends to be priced relative to this oil, i.e. it forms a benchmark.

-Leverage COMEX Division gold futures provide an important alternative to

traditional means of investing in gold such as bullion, coins, and mining stocks. Gold futures contracts are also valuable trading tools for commercial producers and users of the metal. Commercial concentrations of gold are found in widely distributed areas: in association with ores of copper and lead, in quartz veins, in the gravel of stream beds, and with pyrites (iron sulfide). Seawater contains astonishing quantities of gold, but its recovery is not economical.

Secondary silver sources include coin melt, scrap recovery, and dishoarding from countries where export is restricted.

-Leverage Platinum possess unique chemical and physical qualities that make it

a vital industrial material. Jewelry creates the largest demand for platinum, accounting for 51%. Automotive catalysts take 29% and chemical and petroleum refining catalysts, 13%. Platinum is used in the computer industry and in other high-tech electronic applications since it is an excellent conductor of electricity, does not corrode, and has a low reactivity with other metals. This sector accounts for about 7% of consumption.

with platinum, and resembles it in many respects, yet there are important differences between the two metals. Palladium is also produced as a by-product of nickel mining. Russia supplies about 67% of production, South Africa, 23%; and North America, 8%. Annual production runs approximately 8.1 million ounces. Automotive catalysts are the largest consuming sector, accounting for 63% of demand. Electronic equipment accounts for 21%; dental alloys, 12%; and jewelry, 4%.

abundant metal, in the Earth's crust. It makes up about 8% by weight of the Earth's solid surface. Aluminium is remarkable for the metal's low density and for its ability to resist corrosion due to the phenomenon of passivation. Structural components made from aluminium and its alloys are vital to the aerospace industry and are important in other areas of transportation and structural materials. Due in part to its presence in several other markets, aluminium prices are subject to various external forces as well as other markets' conditions. Changes in the industries that use aluminium in their products can have a significant impact on the aluminium industry itself.

aluminium, and is primarily used in highly cyclical industries such as construction and industrial machinery manufacturing. Copper is a metal used extensively as a heat and electrical conductor, as well as a component in metal alloys, most notably brass and bronze. Profitable extraction of the metal depends on cost-efficient high-volume mining techniques, and supply is sensitive to the political situation particularly in those countries where copper mining is a government-controlled enterprise. Copper market participants across the board use COMEX Division high-grade copper futures and options to mitigate price risk, and the copper contracts are used as investment vehicles, as well.

Improving living conditions and expansion of infrastructure require electrification of houses, manufacturing facilities, and offices. Further copper is required in electrical powerplants, transformation and transport of the energy and for the extension of public transport.

The usage

of lead is related to the number of deployed vehicles. Lead-acid batteries have a limited lifecycle and need frequent replacement. However, most of the lead can be recovered from the old batteries and reused. Improving living conditions increase the number of light duty vehicles for private transport and the number of trucks required for the transport of goods. Specific for these economies will be the extensive usage of lead-acid batteries in electrical driven bicycles. Lead-acid batteries do not suit the need for use with hybrid or fuel cell powertrains and will be replaced by other battery technology (NiMH or Lithium).

Nickel is highly resistant to corrosion and is widely used to create corrosion resistant alloys and is also used heavily in the electroplating process. Nickel is used with Chromium to create Nichrome, which has a high melting point and is used for the efficient conversion of electricity to heat. Nickel deposits are classified as either sulphide or laterite deposits. Economical viable laterite deposits are huge but with lower concentration of the ore in comparison with sulphide deposits. The primary ore associated with sulphide deposits is Millerite Nickel prices are reacting significant to over or undersupply of the markets with the metal.

The largest cocoa producing countries are Côte d’Ivoire (40% +), Ghana (15%); Indonesia (14%); Nigeria (5%) and Brazil (4%). Cocoa is mainly consumed in Europe, North America, Japan and Singapore.

Inc. in cents and hundredths of a cent per pound. Cotton is a basic crop that is a major input for the textile, agriculture, and food industries. 64 percent of cotton is used for apparel, 28 percent for home furnishings, and 8 percent for industrial products. In the US, $120 billion of business revenue is stimulated by cotton. The U.S. is a major cotton producer, but its domestic textile industry is relatively small, so it exports much of the cotton it produces. Overall, China is the largest producer and consumer of cotton, accounting for 29 percent of the world's production and 43 percent of the world's use of milled cotton in 2007. China manufactures apparel and other textile products from the milled cotton, often for export. Demand in this and other emerging markets is a leading driver of cotton prices, as are seasonal growing conditions and the prices of competing crops.
