It was a red week across the prices of most grains on the Exchange and in the open market. Soybean topped the laggard chart on the Exchange, declining 8.61% w-o-w while Maize topped the laggard chart in the open market, plunging 9.41% in the same period. 

Market insights revealed that there is low activity of big players in the market, hence, it has been a buyer’s market for these commodities where buyers set the buy price. On the Exchange, maize accounted for 41% of total volumes traded. The AFEX Export index gained 4.24% while the AFEX Commodity Index plunged marginally by 0.63% w-o-w.

Meanwhile, this festive season, we are bringing back the AFEX FairTrade Exchange Traded Commodities (FETC) with a guaranteed return of 15%. FETC represent a basket of commodities that allows investors regardless of their risk appetite level to invest in a unit or more of a contract that is a mixed bag of commodities. It is open for subscription on ComX this week, but you can join the waiting list here .
