Commitment of Traders data for the week to 27 October 2026 shows managed money cut its net long across commodities for a seventh straight week, to 1.18 million contracts, with selling in 22 of 25 major futures. Speculative dollar longs eased for a second week to USD 38.1 billion, while euro and Australian dollar shorts reached record or multi-year extremes.
Heavy fund liquidation across commodities reflects weaker speculative demand that can pressure futures prices, while stretched euro and Aussie shorts raise the risk of sharp reversals in those currencies that affect import costs for feed buyers.
