FX.co ★ Speculators Trim Bearish Bets on Swiss Franc as Net Shorts Narrow

Speculative positioning in the Swiss franc has turned slightly less negative, with traders trimming their net short exposure, according to the latest data on CFTC CHF speculative net positions.

The net speculative position improved from -35.1K contracts previously to -32.9K contracts, signaling a modest reduction in bearish sentiment toward the Swiss currency. While the overall stance remains net short, the shift suggests some market participants may be paring back expectations of further franc weakness or reassessing risk amid evolving global conditions.

The updated figures, released on 05 June 2026, will be closely watched by currency traders and analysts as an indicator of broader market sentiment toward Switzerland’s safe-haven currency and its relative performance against major peers.
