What problem does it solve?
This Skill turns fragmented commodity drivers into a structured, backtest-ready directional view so you can judge whether markets are likely trending bullish, bearish, or neutral.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Supply-demand balance analysis: Combine OPEC/US production and demand indicators (e.g., PMI, imports) to infer surplus vs shortage and translate that into a directional bias for oil.
- Gold, copper, and oil multi-framework scoring: Apply real-rates/USD safe-haven logic for gold and leading-indicator behavior for copper (inventories, concentrates, import strength) to produce consistent directional outputs.
- Inventory cycle, term structure, and seasonality overlays: Map inventory build/draw phases, validate with contango/backwardation and roll yield, and adjust with seasonality tailwinds/headwinds for a composite score suitable for research backtesting.
Quick Start
Use the commodity-analysis skill to analyze crude oil, gold, or copper drivers and return a composite directional report in the template format.
