Speculative interest in the Canadian dollar strengthened modestly, according to the latest data on CFTC CAD speculative net positions released on 27 February 2026. Net long positions in the loonie rose to 27.6K contracts, up from 25.8K previously.

The increase signals a slightly more optimistic stance among traders toward Canada’s currency, as net positioning moved further into positive territory. While the shift is not dramatic, the uptick in bullish bets may reflect improving sentiment toward Canada’s economic outlook or relative confidence in the CAD versus other major currencies. Market participants will now watch upcoming economic releases and central bank signals to see whether this positive bias toward the loonie continues to build.
