Commodities Desk
Air Radar Commodities Desk
The Commodities Desk covers the macro and supply-side catalysts shaping metals and energy markets, with a focus on usable trader context.
Primary focus: Gold, silver, crude oil, and the macro, supply, and dollar factors that drive commodity pricing.
A shared newsroom byline for commodity coverage where macro pressure, supply context, and cross-asset confirmation need to be distilled fast.
Coverage
Desk standards
- Separate supply headlines from broader macro repricing.
- Use related assets like the dollar and rates for confirmation.
- Keep the commodity-specific setup clear and actionable.
How this byline works
Articles under this desk are attributed to the team workflow behind the coverage, not to a single personality brand. That makes the byline model explicit and keeps responsibility attached to published standards instead of implied personal advice.
Review workflow
- Check whether the move is driven by macro pressure, supply headlines, or positioning changes.
- Translate the catalyst into commodity-specific implications and related-asset confirmation.
- Review for source traceability, clean symbol mapping, and risk framing.
