Speculative sentiment in the Nasdaq 100 strengthened, as the latest CFTC data showed a rise in net long positions. According to figures updated on 09 October 2026, net speculative positions in the Nasdaq 100 increased to 58.1K contracts, up from the previous level of 51.2K.

The shift reflects a solid uptick in bullish positioning among traders, suggesting greater confidence in the tech-heavy index’s outlook. While the data alone does not indicate direction for future prices, the growing net long stance highlights an increasing willingness from market participants to take on exposure to U.S. growth and technology names embedded in the Nasdaq 100.
