BLACKROCK RESOURCES & COMMOD
BlackRock Resources & Commodities (BCX) is an exchange-traded fund offering investors exposure to companies and instruments linked to natural resources and commodities. It seeks to capture performance from producers, service firms and commodity-linked securities across energy, metals, agriculture and related sectors. With a market capitalisation of around $741.8m, BCX is modest in size and can be more sensitive to liquidity and flows than larger ETFs. Commodities are cyclical and often respond to global growth, inflation, supply shocks and geopolitical events, which can produce higher volatility than broad-market funds. Some investors use BCX for diversification or as a partial hedge against inflation, but its sector concentration and sensitivity to commodity cycles mean it tends to suit those comfortable with higher risk and a medium-to-long-term horizon. This is general educational information only, not personalised advice — values can fall as well as rise, and past performance is not a reliable guide to the future.

Cyclical exposure
BCX tracks assets sensitive to global growth and commodity cycles, offering potential upside in commodity rallies while also being prone to larger swings.
Diversification angle
Resource-linked exposure can behave differently to broad equity markets and may help hedge inflation, though sector concentration brings its own risks.
Monitor key drivers
Pay attention to supply-demand dynamics, geopolitical events, currency moves and the fund’s holdings — these factors often drive short-term performance.
