Speculative sentiment toward the New Zealand dollar weakened further, with the latest CFTC data showing net short positions expanding to -36.1K, compared with -28.6K previously. The figures, updated on 10 April 2026, indicate that traders have increased their bearish exposure to the NZD.

The widening net short position suggests growing skepticism over the New Zealand dollar’s near-term prospects, as market participants add to bets against the currency. The shift from -28.6K to -36.1K points to a notable build-up in speculative selling, which could weigh on NZD performance if the trend persists. Traders and investors will be watching upcoming economic data and policy signals closely for any signs that could prompt a reversal in positioning.
