The Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index, a gauge of the value of the world’s raw materials, last month rose 5.8%, the biggest advance since March 2022. The gains were led by oil and its derivative products, which have climbed on supply cuts from key OPEC+ producers and an improved macroeconomic outlook. Other commodities such as copper, gold, cotton and corn also rose.
