Abstract
This research lends insight into the empirical validity of reverse regressions hypothesizing that spot prices today help to predict forward rates in the future. This paper analyzes the possible relationship between wheat futures prices and spot oil prices considering the importance of the effects of temporal aggregation and alternative model specification for the understanding of the empirical relationships between the two markets.
