COT Silver Report – August 14, 2026

SilverSeek.com has published its latest COT Silver Report, dated August 14, 2026. The report is a recurring feature of the silver market news site, issued under the COT Silver Report byline and available on the original article page at silverseek.com.

The COT Silver Report series follows the weekly Commitments of Traders (COT) data for the silver market released by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The CFTC publishes the report once a week, typically on Friday afternoon, reflecting futures positions held as of the close of the prior Tuesday. The data categorizes open interest by trader group — commercial firms, non-commercial large speculators, and smaller non-reportable traders — and is a widely used reference for those who track positioning in U.S. futures markets, including precious metals. Because the CFTC figures offer one of the few regular public breakdowns of who holds futures positions, silver market commentators commonly read the weekly changes in net long and net short exposure across these trader groups as a gauge of how positioning is evolving, alongside price action itself.

That positioning context is the core of the series' appeal for SilverSeek's readership: each installment places the CFTC's figures within the site's ongoing silver market coverage, and successive issues can be compared to see how the trader groupings shifted from one week to the next. Under the CFTC's usual Friday release pattern, the next weekly data set — and with it the following installment of the series — would follow roughly a week after this report.

The publication page also carries background on the publisher. Since 2003, SilverSeek.com has provided silver investors with silver market news and information, including live silver prices, charts, articles, in-depth commentaries, silver stock updates, and analysis. The site additionally offers a set of tools for its online silver community to connect and share silver information on a real-time basis.
