These funds tend to be passively managed and aim to provide exposure for investors who believe the price of wheat is heading higher. Wheat futures are affected by changes in demand for wheat and wheat supply, making it an attractive commodity for investors who are bullish on wheat consumption or bearish on wheat production. As with other commodities, wheat is not simply affected by changes in physical supply and demand. Speculators can play a big role in price movements. In addition, prices are often influenced by factors such as geopolitical tensions, climate changes, and changes in nutritional habits. As a result, these funds are only appropriate for more aggressive investors. Last Updated: 04/19/2024 View more View less
