They are also looked upon as protection against price increases (or inflation), because when prices go up, so do these funds. This development makes them very appealing to most investors. These funds are for those who invest in certain designated real assets or their derivatives (like future contracts – instruments that smooth the progress of investment in commodities). The commodities are traded to maximize profits. In a way, commodity mutual funds are scaled-down versions of hedge funds. Hedge funds are for big-time investors who can pool in excess of a million dollars for the purpose of commodity trading.
