Speculative net positions in silver futures in the United States inched up in the latest data release, according to figures published on 25 September 2026 by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Net speculative positions rose to 25.4K contracts, a marginal increase from the previous level of 25.3K. The uptick suggests that investor sentiment toward silver remains slightly more bullish than in the prior reporting period, though the change is modest and does not yet signal a decisive repositioning in the market.
Market participants often monitor CFTC positioning data as a gauge of speculative appetite in precious metals. The latest numbers indicate that, for now, speculative interest in silver is holding steady with a slight tilt toward the long side.
