increased in value since the reflation trade started from the depths of the coronavirus lows and it has regained levels last seen traded 3 years ago. The big fall from 2011 coincided with the peak in the commodity super-cycle and then the Reserve Bank of Australia\u2019s decision to cut the cash rate towards zero in a bid to stimulate the economy. Australian economics is highly tied to the 2 power houses of the Chinese economy and the US economy. Economists have been talking of how China has been stock piling commodities as insurance against any further supply chain disruptions and overall, they are trying to boost their GDP to a healthy 6% this year, so there is a case of the Chinese needing more commodities for infrastructure building etc. They are also leaders in the Electronic Vehicle market, so copper is highly sort after for the EV industry as well as minerals and metals for the EV cells. Whether it be stock piling or the need for inventory for new emerging manufacturing, the Chinese trade in commodities will benefit the Australian dollar, BHP and their associated product. Whether it turns into another China driven commodity super-cycle only time will tell.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are looking for a single asset that covers the rising commodity prices, you could look for an Exchange Traded Fund or you could go the route of finding a commodities-based company.
