Commodity markets saw little activity on Tuesday as traders returned from the Christmas break. Trading volumes were thin across the board, with many participants still away for the holidays.

Energy, metals, and agricultural commodities all experienced subdued trading. With the year drawing to a close, many investors have already squared their positions, contributing to the lack of significant price movement.

Analysts anticipate a gradual increase in market participation as the new year approaches. However, major price swings are not expected until after the holiday season concludes.
