The best-performing commodity in 2013 was [US] natural gas:

...natural-gas futures [on the New York Mercantile Exchange] rose 26% [in 2013], their biggest one-year rise since 2005 and the largest percentage gain for any commodity in 2013.

This was partly due to the weather; however, US NG prices also rose because several oil & gas companies redirected their funding of shale-gas projects to liquids-rich shales.
