Historical AI commentary — 2026-07-07
This commentary is dated separately from the positioning table. It may describe an earlier market environment.
SUMMARY: Managed Money in Coffee is at the 87.8th percentile of net long positions, a level that is elevated but declining sharply after a 12-week downtrend. The key divergence is that while specs are still very long, they are unwinding at a rapid pace of over 8,600 contracts per week, suggesting a potential for continued price weakness.
