I agree completely. The comms can become infinitely short or long. The reason that the markets reverse when the comms are heavily against the trend is because the speculators exhaust themselves. When the last clown buys or shorts it's game over.

In most markets I understood commercials as producers largely hedging long positions (like in gold). Never been sure who they are in stock indices but supposed they were generally long stocks and therefor mostly shorting the index futures. Never been sure either that these numbers are that useful.... except I would be inclined to follow the large speculators assuming them to be savvy hedge funds?
