Understanding Data Frequency

IMF/World Bank global commodity price indices. Published monthly with 1-2 month lag. Provides historical context over longer periods.
Why the difference? Daily commodity prices from exchanges are freely available for energy products. However, metals and agricultural commodities are typically traded through private contracts, so free public data is only available as monthly averages from international organizations.
