What is Commodity Price Index?
A commodity price index is a weighted aggregate of multiple commodity prices — typically energy, metals, and agriculture. Each central bank publishes its own index reflecting its trade structure (BoC commodity index, RBA index of commodity prices, etc.).
Why it matters for FX
Commodity-price indices track the export-revenue side of commodity-currency economies and the import-cost side of manufactured-goods importers. They are a primary driver of AUD, CAD, NZD, NOK, and BRL via the terms-of-trade channel.
