Commodity ETFs hold assets in companies that source and transport agricultural products, natural resources and precious metals. ETFs from this sector can also consist of futures and derivatives that track the price of underlying commodities. These commodities can include cash crops, natural resources and precious metals.
Investing directly in commodities like raw materials or cash crops can require extensive research and personal connections with distributors. A direct investment can be tough to manage, but you can put money into a bundle of these commodities with commodity exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Why Invest in Commodity ETFs?
Here are 3 reasons you should consider investing in commodity ETFs.
1. Commodity ETFs can help diversify your portfolio.
Commodity ETFs fund a wide range of industries such as metals, livestock, agricultural produce and natural resources. Some of these ETFs focus on a single commodity while others offer broader exposure to numerous commodities.
You can also choose to invest in commodity ETFs with underlying commodities such as oil, gold and water. You can also put your money behind commodity stock ETFs that hold assets in companies that produce and distribute commodities.
There are more than 100 ETFs from the commodities sector. Each ETF has a varying volatility rate to suit your risk profile and portfolio.
2. Commodity ETF performances are inversely related to stocks.
Commodities can rise in value when stocks crash and vice versa. Market downward spirals have driven high demand for assets such as gold and oil, and investors were met with limited trading capacity. But commodity ETFs can make it easier to buy and sell assets at the click of a button.
Stock markets took a severe hit during the 1st quarter of 2020. But during this time, the World Gold Council reported gold-backed ETFs added 298 tons of gold or $23 billion worth of assets — the highest quarterly amount and the largest tonnage added since 2016.
3. Commodity ETFs can be leveraged for greater returns.
Leveraged commodity ETFs are designed to track benchmark indices with a double or even triple rate of return. These ETFs can come in handy to make quick profits during economic crises. But you should only invest in these leveraged ETFs if you have a high-risk profile.
There are management fees and interest rates involved in leveraged commodity ETFs that could have a compound effect on your returns from long-term investments. The leverage rates are reset on a daily basis. You can often make most of your gains off of these ETFs in a 1-day trading session.
Top 3 Commodity ETFs by AUM
ETFs with underlying commodities are volatile and can vary in stock value throughout the year. The price of agricultural commodities depends on harvest conditions. Oil and natural gas commodities are inclined toward the trade policies between countries and metal commodities are subject to availability.
You should consider the expense ratios, stock quotes, index performance, historical returns record, liquidity and total assets under management (AUM) before investing in ETFs.
Here are some of the top ETFs by AUM based on these criteria.
ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas
ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas (NYSEARCA: BOIL) seeks daily investment results that correspond to twice the daily performance of the Bloomberg Natural Gas Subindex. The fund’s benchmark is an index of natural gas futures contracts. It is not intended to track the performance of the spot price of natural gas. It should be expected to perform very differently from the spot price of natural gas, according to ProShares.
United States Natural Gas Fund LP
Teucrium Wheat Fund
Teucrium Wheat Fund ETF (NYSEARCA: WEAT) reflects the daily changes in percentage terms of a weighted average of the closing settlement prices for futures contracts for wheat traded on the Chicago Board of Trade.
