Bloomberg Commodity Index 2022 Target Weights Announced
NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Bloomberg announced the composition and target weights for 2022 for the Bloomberg Commodity Index ("BCOM").
Launched in 1998, with historical data available back to 1960, BCOM is a widely tracked benchmark for the commodities market. Assets tracking the benchmark are now over $100bn, the highest level on record. The index references exchange-traded contracts linked to 23 physical commodities, and the 2022 target weights will be implemented during the standard January 2022 index roll.
As a result of this year's reconstitution, there will be no commodity additions nor deletions in BCOM. The precious metals sector was the only group to see a weight increase in 2022, driven by increases in both gold and silver. Gold's target weight increased by 0.35%, hitting BCOM's single commodity limit of 15%. Despite a slight decrease, the energy sector retains the highest weight, at 29.8%.
Overall, BCOM will see sector target weight decreases in energy, grains, softs, livestock and industrial metals. The target weights for all BCOM components for 2022, as well as their comparative weights in 2021, are listed below:
