The last line of each weekday Take: a bank's or research house's commodity trade recommendation, or, when none is public that week, its dated view. Each line names the house and the date its note was published. Houses close and change their recommendations and views without notice; nothing here is trade advice.
Since published: where the letter's own tables price the instrument, its futures price in the first issue after the note against the latest issue (Oct 30, 2026), and whether the market has since moved in the direction the house expected. It says where the market went, not whether the house is still in the trade. A relative-value idea, an option structure or a named far-dated contract carries no mark.
