Luc, you know if you were a real gentleman you would give us a link, with some of the more recent data on the commitment of commercials, Of course with the commitment of the commericals is time delayed an tends to say where we will be 2-4 months from now when they are in a pronounced long or short position.....there was a great article in Barron's last summer in June or July about a guy who uses this technique a fair bit...I take it you read that.. I can look to see if I can find that, I know I archived it. BTW, the commercials have been significantly short silver recently, but not Gold....

LT: Of the many things that have the ability to influence our stock markets, for me the most important is the Japanese implosion, and follow-on events. Why? Because they have problems almost as serious as ours, but they have used up most of the "delay-the-day-of reckoning" actions, whereas we still have one or two left. The calling in by Japan of its widely scattered (and unfortunately mostly converted) financial resources, is already being felt. As this gathers impetus, our markets will feel increasing strain. When the world's main "banker" stops lending, ceases to purchase our semi-worthless paper, and actually begins to retrench, the silly idea that we are an island of prosperity is likely to disappear quickly. If the peak of this retrenchment coincides with tech sector problem recognition, it will get terribly messy. Sort of shaping up that way. Best, Earlie
