USGlobalBulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsRegionNorth America

The latest CFTC CoT showed asset managers trimming some of their net longs (TU, FV, US & WN), while they added to others (TY & UXY). They also cut net longs in SOFR futures.

  • Meanwhile, hedge funds pared back net shorts in most contracts, only adding to net shorts in TU & UXY futures. They also added to net longs in SOFR futures.
  • The CFTC survey cut off date was September 24, capturing the initial reaction to the Fed’s 50bp rate cut.
  • Non-commercial positioning remained net short across all major Tsy futures.
  • As ever, CFTC CoT positioning metrics will be skewed by basis trades.
