Looking For A Stock Market Hedge? This ETF Tracks A Commodity Expected To Rise
Portfolio Pulse from Melanie Schaffer
The Teucrium Sugar Fund ETF (NYSE:CANE) is experiencing a downtrend since Feb. 12, amidst expectations of a 20% increase in raw sugar prices by 2024 due to a global supply glut influenced by stable production in Brazil and stagnant growth in India. Despite the downtrend, CANE offers a unique investment opportunity as it tracks sugar futures, a commodity not moving in tandem with U.S. stock market trends, potentially serving as a market hedge. The ETF showed signs of a potential reversal with a dragonfly doji candlestick indicating a possible local bottom.
