Kalshi Says Commodities Volumes Ramp Up -- Market Talk

0944 ET - Prediction market and exchange Kalshi says the volume of commodities-related contracts traded over the past seven months hit $400 million. That's more than four times the volume that the exchange's crypto offerings had at the same point in their lifecycle, the company says. Kalshi's commodities prediction markets include gold, silver, copper, WTI crude oil, Brent crude, gasoline, and natural gas. The exponential growth means a few things, a spokeswoman for the company says. "This trend highlights not only the huge demand for commodities prediction markets, but also the compounding power of Kalshi's platform," the spokeswoman says. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)
