The CFTC report showed no records for the major commodities in traditional funds or managed money. There were some positions very close to record. Traditional funds bought more than expected corn, wheat and soybean meal, and sold a less than expected number of soybeans. Traditional funds sold a little more soybean oil than the trade guessed. For the week ending 8/21, money managers were busy buying soybeans and corn, although much of that occurred early on.
