A 24/7 Wall St. feature ranks the 25 global commodities with the largest price increases from May 2021 to May 2022, using World Bank data. It notes US consumer inflation at 8.6%, a 34.6% rise in energy, and a 10.1% rise in food.
The ranking highlights broad commodity inflation, including meat and energy costs that feed into feed-ingredient and livestock economics. It is a retrospective overview with no new supply or demand event behind it.
