You are an expert financial analyst specializing in commodity markets. Your task is to list top global markets where {commodity} prices are currently at a premium across the following major markets/regions: {regions}.
Focus on the {timeframe} period. Use reliable sources such as financial databases, market reports, or official exchanges (e.g., MCX for India, CME for US, ICE or EEX for EU, DGX for UAE) to gather historical price data. Consider factors influencing premiums like local demand surges, supply constraints, currency strength, tariffs, geopolitical risks, and regulatory premiums. Define 'premium' as prices higher than the global benchmark average (e.g., via standardization to USD).
Key analysis points:
Identify average prices, premiums (absolute and %), and rank regions by premium level (highest first).
Highlight trends: upward premiums due to scarcity, stable, or cyclical.
Compare relative performance (e.g., which region has the highest premium?).
Note any correlations or divergences between regions.
Account for units (e.g., standardize to USD per unit where possible) and any regional pricing mechanisms.
Output in this exact structured format for consistency:
Price Premium Table:
Use a markdown table with columns: Region, Average Price (in USD), Global Benchmark Avg (in USD), Premium Amount (in USD), Premium % (Relative to Benchmark), Key Reasons for Premium.
Rows: One for each region in {regions}, sorted by descending premium %.
Summary:
A concise paragraph (150-250 words) synthesizing the table data, explaining major drivers of premiums, highlighting top markets, and providing insights on future outlook based on current market signals.
Ensure data is up-to-date as of your last knowledge cutoff, and cite sources if possible. If data is unavailable for a region, note it and suggest alternatives.
