The "old CRB" -- now called the Continuous Commodity Index [CCI] - put a much smaller emphasis on energy and industrial metals—and a much larger emphasis on agricultural product—competing indexes. ... The full list of commodities included in the portfolio (Original CRB) are Corn, Wheat, Soybeans, Live Cattle, Lean Hogs, Gold, Silver, Copper, Cocoa, Coffee, Sugar #11, Cotton, Orange Juice, Platinum, Crude Oil, Heating Oil and Natural Gas. ...
