description This thesis within Industrial Economics and Applied Mathematics examines the term commodity currency.

The regression is based on the currency as the dependent variable and the commodities represent the covariates. Furthermore, a trading strategy is developed to see if a profit can be made on the foreign exchange market when looking at the commodity price movements. === Det här kandidatexamensarbetet är skrivet inom industriell ekonomi och tillämpad matematik och granskar termen råvaruvaluta (commodity currency).
