Falling commodity prices when the global growth is losing speed

Falling commodity prices when the global growth is losing speed

The recovery in the global economy has lost momentum during the spring, particularly in EMU-area but also in the emerging markets. Uncertainties about the strength in the global economy has also affected the  commodity market, where we have seen a broad price decrease in April, from crude oil, metals to soft commodities like food. The Swedbank total commodity price index fell by 3,3% in April compared with the previous month. The largest price decreases was for metals and crude oil, which however could be a positive impact on the global economy.
