1-Ounce Gold Futures Contract
The 1-Ounce Gold futures contract represents the smallest available Gold contract offered by the CME Group exchange. This contract offers a very low capital requirement for investors interested in trading Gold futures, one of the most widely traded futures products worldwide. Although Gold futures are contracts for physically-deliverable commodities, these products are also critical tools for diversifying portfolios and mitigating risk. Traditionally, gold has been seen as a “safe haven” in times of global economic or political uncertainty, and as such, prices may often move inverse to the U.S. dollar, treasury bonds, and U.S. stock indexes.
