Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:GS) said over the next 12 months they see energy as the top performer in the commodity sector, while they view agriculture as the weakest.
Energy is projected to rise at a 27 percent clip, followed by precious metals at 17 percent, and industrial metals at 15 percent. Agriculture on the other hand, is expected to plummet by 10 percent during the same time.
The analysts' report said, "For the more cyclical commodities, oil and copper, while continued indications of more supportive policy in the U.S. and China, better macro data in these key countries, and improving commodity data have pushed prices higher within their respective trading ranges, we continue to expect them to break out to the upside in coming months."
In the short term they do see some agriculture products doing well, as they raised their outlook on raw sugar, cotton, corn and arabica.
