Everyday things in raw materials
Four live indices price everyday products in their raw materials. Each index tracks the futures prices of what goes into one product, weighted by how much of it the product needs. Each index starts at 100 on 13 March 2026. A reading of 105 means the materials cost 5% more than at the start. New readings arrive every 15 minutes while markets trade.
