The raw commodity sector is still in an overall slump, which has helped to produce worldwide deflationary worries. However, just the past few trading sessions there are “green shoots” showing in a few markets that could be very early clues the raw commodity sector “bust” is coming to an end.

The sideways price action in other commodity futures markets, such as sector leader crude oil, suggests the bears in those markets have become exhausted and price bottoms could also be in place.
