Reuters- Tiberius has launched a new commodity fund to reap returns from price discrepancies created by volatile commodity markets next year, the Swiss-based firm told Reuters on Monday.
The fund manager thinks the time is ripe right for a new fund that will be able to take short positions — bets on lower prices in the futures — as well as long positions in commodity markets, where prices over the past few years have surged.
Many analysts and fund mangers are coming around to the view that commodities are no longer a one-way bet, that volatility will become a feature of the market and that prices could overshoot on the downside or upside.
