As the title, I know we can use quantmod package to get stock prices, but how can we retrieve commodity prices like Gold, Oil or Aggs?

Use Quandl package, here are some examples

Gold <- Quandl("LBMA/GOLD")
WTI <- Quandl("CHRIS/CME_CL1")
Corn <- Quandl("CHRIS/CME_C1")

You can go to their website for more information.

This is the page you can get ticker information.

  • Is there a way to bulk download all commodity prices (Metal, energy etc.) ? I went through Quandl but couldn't find a single source that contains everything – nba2020 Jan 06 '20 at 13:53
