Goldman goes long commodities... again

Just over a month after closing its lucrative 'CCCP' commodity trade, Goldman Sachs recommends positions in zinc, copper and oil

Just over a month ago, Goldman closed out its lucrative “CCCP” commodity trade, where it was able to generate a 25% return in just a four-and-a-half month period.

The trade was based on a weighted basket of futures comprising crude oil, copper, cotton/soybeans and platinum long positions. But an increase in geopolitical risk led it to close the trade a few points shy of its 28% target.
