As the global trade flow of protein rich commodities from developed nations into emerging markets continues to rise, so has price volatility. Dairy prices are among the most volatile in the soft commodities basket, and as global dairy derivatives markets expand, so do opportunities to employ speculative trading strategies. Hear from Fonterra, the largest dairy exporter in the Asian region, and the New Zealand Exchange, who operate the only derivatives market for globally traded dairy products, on dairy market correlations with securities such as the NZD, as well as trading strategies including cross-exchange spread trading in Butter, Milk Price index arbitrage, and other macro related trading opportunities.
