Hi CO,
Thanks, !!
On this:
"Reportable Commercials - Producers//Users who use the underlying in the course of business and use the futures/options markets for hedging purposes. This group would necessarily be most familiar with fundamental conditions. "

Regarding Ng, I was looking to clarify just where the Utilities, Large Power producers really fit in. I think you have confirmed that. I just wasn't sure where the line might be drawn between a commercial user (power plant) and a potential speculator where (a company that owns the power plant) might trade/purchase from the spot market when it is to their advantage

Thanks, Lee
