Abstract

Commodity pricing models generally explain the link between commodity prices and stock levels in terms of a stock‐out constraint or a convenience yield. Analysis of this link is provided using monthly London Metals Exchange copper, lead, and zinc prices obtained for the period November 1964 to December 2003. A Markov model, fitted to these data, supports the existence of two distinct pricing regimes while the impact of convenience yields is also identified. Β© 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This article presents a reduced-form, two-factor model to price commodity derivatives, which generalizes the model by Schwartz and Smith (2000). The model allows for two mean-reverting stochastic factors and therefore implies that spot and futures prices can be stationary. An empirical study for the
