Backwardation

. In the world of finance, the concept of futures market can be quite complex. A key aspect to understand is how prices of commodities are affected in this market. When a commodity is in short supply, the near month contract will be sold at a higher price, while the distant month contract will be sold at a lower price. This is due to the spot price of the commodity being higher than the forward price. Essentially, this reflects the current demand and scarcity of the commodity. It's important to keep this in mind when making decisions in the futures market.
