EUR Net Position Net Long Shor
Foreigners Remain Optimistic on Canada
CAD net position was in the positive this week, hitting452 contracts. Long positions increased slightly from
26,957 to 27,734 while short interest decreased from
31,721 to 27,282. Expect net positions to increase with
the BoC raising the discount rate and the jobs report
coming in stronger than expected.
The Euro is back in the forefront, with speculators
remaining net short. Net longs increased from 51,099
to 53,156 while short interest increased from 76,668 to
76,855.
Speculators remain bearish of the USD coming into
the midterm elections. Furthermore, the market is
concerned with the expansion of the Federal Reserve
balance sheet, large and growing federal fiscal budget
deficits, socialist tax policies and further job losses.
AUD long positions surged on positive economic
news out of China. Long positions increased by 15,439
while short positions only increased by 2,281. This
brings the net position to 56,966, an increase of
13,158.
The Swiss Franc is coming close to parity with the
USD, speculators are continuing to pile into the
currency with net positions increasing by 2,346 to
16,627.
As data points to further economic deterioration,
speculators decreased net positions in both crude oil
and the S&P 500. Retail investors continue to flow out
of equities and into bonds, resulting in decreased long
positions.
Net gold positions increased once again to 239,697.
This is the 5th
straight week that positions have
increased. Further pressure against the USD is helping
drive gold to new highs.
