Silver
*The large specs decreased their long positions by 2,934 contracts and decreased their shorts by 844 contracts.
*The commercials increased their longs by 2,428 contracts and reduced their shorts by 4,364 contracts.
*The small specs decreased their longs by 2,035 contracts and increased their shorts by 2,667 contracts.
