War and Wheat: Navigating markets during global conflict with Dennis Voznesenski
About this episode
In this episode, we discuss the impact of conflict and war on commodities markets through the lens of a brand new book by Dennis Voznesenski: War and Wheat. Dennis is an agricultural economist at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and prior to that at Rabobank. Thoroughly researched, War and Wheat tells the story of how the agricultural markets fared during World War I, World War II and the recent Russian invasion of Ukraine and elucidates key learnings on how commodity markets function and how commodity traders can better navigate the more volatile times ahead. The book is available here: https://www.amazon.com.au/War-Wheat-Navigating-markets-conflict/dp/1763580938
