When the futures price is higher than the spot price, it shows that the market's expectation of the future spot price is higher than the current actual price. This phenomenon often occurs when the supply and demand of commodities are seriously unbalanced, such as around the harvest season, under the influence of policies. Futures premium means the market's confidence in future commodity prices, and also reflects the market's assessment of the actual situation.
