Inverted Market

A term frequently used in the finance world is "contango," which refers to a situation in the futures market where the price of a commodity for delivery in the near future is higher than the price for delivery in a further future. This is typically seen in markets where there is a high demand for the commodity in the present, but an expected decrease in demand in the future. Essentially, it means the market is anticipating a decline in price over time. This concept can be complex, but understanding it is crucial for anyone involved in trading commodities.
