This paper contributes to the empirical evidence on the co-movement and determinants of commodity prices. Using nonstationary panel methods, the authors document a statistically significant degree of co-movement due to a common factor.

This evidence is robust to the inclusion of demand and supply shocks, which both positively impact on co-movement of commodity prices. 2012-03-19T18:00:42Z 2012-03-19T18:00:42Z 2011-02-01 http://www-wds.worldbank.org/external/default/main?menuPK=64187510&pagePK=64193027&piPK=64187937&theSitePK=523679&menuPK=64187510&searchMenuPK=64187283&siteName=WDS&entityID=000158349_20110228101354 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/3344 English Policy Research working paper ; no.
