Learn about the trends, risks, and opportunities that are expected to drive the commodities markets in the second half of 2026.
The first half of 2026 showed that volatility remains one of the key characteristics of global markets. Geopolitical tensions, changes in monetary policy, exchange rate fluctuations, weather events, and shifts in international trade flows have directly impacted commodity prices and increased market complexity for participants in the agribusiness supply chain.
As we move into the second half of the year, one question becomes even more relevant: What factors will truly drive the commodities market in the coming months?
These and other questions will be addressed at the H2 2026 Outlook, hosted by Hedgepoint Global Markets. The event features a series of presentations led by the company’s Market Intelligence team, which will share analyses of the key factors likely to influence market behavior throughout the second half of the year.
With panels dedicated to macroeconomics, energy, grains and oilseeds, soft commodities, and climate, the Outlook offers an integrated view of the scenarios, risks, and opportunities that may impact the business environment in the coming months.

The macroeconomic landscape remains the key factor
Decisions made by central banks, growth outlooks for major economies, inflation, the dollar’s performance, and geopolitical risks continue to shape the commodities landscape.
In addition, changes in trade policies and global export flows can rapidly alter competitiveness among major producing countries, creating opportunities for some markets and challenges for others.
For companies exposed to price volatility, understanding these trends has become just as important as monitoring the supply and demand for each commodity.
Each market has its own fundamentals
Although macroeconomic factors influence virtually all commodities, each market has specific characteristics that must be analyzed individually.
Weather conditions continue to shape expectations for agricultural crops. The energy sector continues to track trends in global demand and renewable fuels. Meanwhile, markets such as coffee, sugar, grains, and oilseeds remain sensitive to developments in the major producing and consuming regions.
Therefore, strategic decisions require an integrated perspective that combines specific fundamentals with macroeconomic trends.
Information Creates a Competitive Advantage
In increasingly dynamic markets, the speed at which new information arrives can make all the difference in results.
Rather than simply following the news, companies need to transform data into market intelligence. This means understanding market scenarios, identifying risks, evaluating opportunities, and anticipating potential impacts on prices, margins, and business strategies.
This capability enables more consistent decisions regarding marketing, risk management, financial planning, and strategy formulation for the remainder of the harvest and the year.
Preparing for volatility starts with information
Although it is impossible to eliminate market uncertainties, it is possible to be better prepared to face them.
Following expert analysis, understanding the factors that drive prices, and being familiar with different scenarios helps companies and professionals reduce risks and identify opportunities before they take hold in the market.
