| Just viewing the commitment of traders report and thinking of the differant traders that have come into the market as investors looking for a return on their investment. A few years ago there were huge investments in the stock market. Today those same investors may be putting their money into commodities. Unemployment is up and the professional sector with a little computor savy can now trade from home and as the bull market goes these investors could possibly be a larger influance on the market than what we percieve. All one has to do is open an account with a eletronic trading firm and one is able to trade all the commodities. I might be just thinking too much! But, it was the yuppies who pushed the tech stocks to it's biggest bubble ever. With all the advertisement on the world economy and all the attention towards inflation and commodities I think it would create a whole new type of short term investor. In the old days, in Chicago the talk was that taxi drivers knew as much or more about the markets as some of the investors themselves. Now with fast pace computers and the new computer generation we may have a whole new unrecognized sector of computor/commodity traders. With the modern computors and technology could we possible have a million new traders in the market since 2007, mostly trading commodities?
