2026.03.2019:30:00UTC+00Speculators Trim Bullish Bets on Silver as CFTC Net Positions Ease to 21.9K

Bullish sentiment in the silver futures market cooled in the latest week, with speculative net positions declining, according to the latest data from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

As of 20 March 2026, CFTC Silver speculative net positions stood at 21.9K, down from the previous reading of 24.6K. The reduction indicates that traders have pared back long exposure or added to short positions, signaling a more cautious stance toward silver in the near term.

While net positioning remains in positive territory, the pullback suggests that some speculative investors may be locking in profits or reacting to shifting expectations around interest rates, inflation, or broader risk sentiment. Market participants will be watching upcoming macroeconomic data and Federal Reserve signals to gauge whether this move marks the start of a broader repositioning in precious metals.
