Speculative Bets on Mexican Peso Ease as CFTC Net Long Positions Fall to 75.2K

Speculative positioning in the Mexican peso has moderated, with CFTC MXN speculative net positions slipping to 75.2K from a previous 87.8K. The latest data, updated on 25 September 2026, indicate a cooling in bullish sentiment toward the currency.

While traders remain net long on the peso, the reduction in positions suggests a more cautious stance compared with the prior reading. The adjustment may reflect profit-taking or a reassessment of risk in the broader emerging-market FX space, as market participants react to evolving global financial conditions and Mexico-specific factors.
