WCU: Tight supply battles recession risks across key commodities
By Ole S. Hansen oktober 3, 2022

The commodity sector traded lower by around 7% in September with the weakness being driven by growth-dependent sectors, like energy and industrial metals, in response to a deteriorating outlook for global growth. This deterioration was led by China’s weakness, due to prolonged lockdowns, and Europe remaining embroiled in a historic energy crisis. Adding to this, we have witnessed a month of turmoil across financial markets driven by a surging dollar and traders sending bond yields sharply higher in anticipation of further rate hikes from central banks, led by the US Federal Reserve.
