2026.05.1519:30:00UTC+00Euro Bullish Bets Climb as CFTC EUR Net Longs Expand to 40.2K

Speculative positioning in the euro strengthened further, with CFTC EUR net positions rising to 40.2K contracts, up from 32.2K previously, according to data updated on 15 May 2026.

The increase in net long positions underscores a growing bullish bias toward the single currency among speculative traders. The shift suggests that market participants are becoming more confident in the Euro Zone’s outlook relative to other major currencies, with positioning moving deeper into positive territory compared with the prior reading.

While the data does not detail underlying drivers, the continued build-up in net longs signals that investors are increasingly inclined to back the euro in the near term, potentially reflecting expectations of supportive economic or policy developments within the bloc.
