S&P GSCI

The S&P GSCI is a composite index of commodities that measures the performance of the commodity market. The S&P GSCI is the commodity equivalent of stock indexes, such as the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones. The S&P GSCI was simply called the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI) before it was purchased by Standard & Poor’s in 2007. Investing in a GSCI fund provides a broadly diversified, unleveraged, long-only position in commodity futures.
