Net speculative position — last 52 weeks

Sep 2025 Dashed line = flat (neither net long nor net short) Sep 2026

The current reading sits in the 48th percentile of its 3-year range — over the past 3 years, the net position has been lower than it is now 48% of the time. A high reading means the position is crowded by its own historical standards; it is context, not a forecast.

All three cohorts

Net positions by trader category, week ending 8 September 2026
CategoryNet positionWeek change
Large speculatorsFunds and managed money-29,985-7,109
CommercialsProducers, users and banks hedging physical exposure+41,504+5,416
Small tradersBelow the CFTC reporting threshold-11,519

The three cohorts net to zero between them — every long has a short on the other side. Commercials being heavily short is normal for a produced commodity and is not a bearish view; it is a hedge against inventory they already own.
