State Street commodity ETFs for portfolio resilience and diversification
Commodities offer investors exposure to the real economy through a broad mix of physical resources, including energy, agriculture and livestock, and metals. Commodities may help diversify portfolios, and provide potential resilience across market cycles, particularly when inflation, supply dynamics or geopolitical factors are influencing markets.
Why use an ETF to access commodities?
Accessing commodities through an ETF can offer a practical and cost-efficient way to gain this exposure. By tracking a transparent, rules based benchmark such as the Dow Jones Commodity Index 3 Month Forward, a commodities ETF provides diversified access across multiple commodity sectors within a single investment. The index’s forward looking approach also seeks to mitigate some of the structural challenges associated with futures based investing, supporting a more balanced long term allocation to the asset class.
