8 Best Commodities ETFs of December 2023 – Forbes Advisor

The Invesco DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund offers exposure to a wide range of commodities across the energy, metals and agricultural sectors.

This ETF is rebalanced and reconstituted annually in November. The Fund caters to investors who want a cost-effective and convenient way to invest in commodity futures. DBC’s index holds futures contracts on 14 of the most heavily traded and important physical commodities in the world. So, DBC shareholders get exposure to such assets as gasoline, West Texas intermediate (WTI) crude oil, Brent crude, New York Harbor ultra-low sulfur diesel, gold, sugar, soybeans, copper, corn, wheat and aluminum.

In this way, DBC offers diversification and broad exposure across the commodities spectrum, and it comes with a lower risk profile than many other commodity ETFs. Yet despite its diversification, DBC’s five-year average annual return tops its Morningstar commodities broad basket peer group’s average.
