Natural Gas
Natural gas is one of the most volatile commodities traded in financial markets. It is especially sensitive to global weather conditions, natural disasters (hurricanes, etc.), and the economy.In the fall of 2005, a series of natural disasters around the world, including Hurricane Katrina and a typhoon in China, affected the price of natural gas immensely. As seen in 2008, the price of natural gas can spike to $13/MMBtu and then fall to ~$2/MMBtu in just a few years (2012).
