Commodities: Why investors should take a diversified approach

Crude oil prices (BZ=F, CL=F) hit a four-month low after OPEC+ extended production cuts into 2025. In such uncertain conditions, investors looking to gain exposure to oil face challenges. VettaFi Head of Research Todd Rosenbluth joins Wealth! to discuss strategies for investing in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to protect against this commodity volatility. Rosenbluth notes that ETF investors are gravitating toward "more broadly diversified commodity-oriented ETFs." He recommends "diversified commodity strategy ETFs," such as the Aberdeen Standard Bloomberg All (BCI), as a means for individuals "to get the benefits of diversification" while shielding themselves from market volatility. "Many folks are nervous. They're looking for modest gains, up about 5%, or even down," Rosenbluth tells Yahoo Finance. "And so what we're finding is even the more free cash-flow, more broadly diversified ETFs are gaining traction."
