Bank of America Merrill Lynch constructs the MLCX based on the liquidity of the constituent futures contracts and the value of the global production of each underlying commodity. The MLCX also seeks to avoid redundant contracts, and includes only the most liquid contract per commodity which is determined by volume and price. Based on these rules, the MLCX will include Soybean Meal and remove Soybean Oil for 2014. Brent crude oil and WTI crude oil are also no longer considered redundant contracts. This will result in adding WTI crude oil to the MLCX for 2014 and raising the maximum number of components for the energy sector to five. The commodity weights, which are determined by the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Commodities group pursuant to the MLCX Handbook, are listed below:
