The non-commercial futures contracts of 10-Year Note futures, traded by large speculators and hedge funds, totaled a net position of 6,516 contracts in the data reported through Tuesday June 23rd. This was a weekly gain of 17,401 net contracts from the previous week which had a total of -10,885 net contracts.

The week’s net position was the result of the gross bullish position (longs) advancing by 17,883 contracts (to a weekly total of 686,764 contracts) while the gross bearish position (shorts) rose by just 482 contracts for the week (to a total of 680,248 contracts).

10-Year Note speculators flipped their bets back into a bullish position this week. Two weeks ago on June 9th, the speculative position rose into a net bullish position for the first time since December of 2017 while last week saw a relapse back into a small bearish level. In the big picture, these small bullish or bearish levels are essentially a neutral stance among the speculators for the time being.
