CFTC data released on 15 May 2026 show that speculative interest in silver has strengthened, with net long positions rising to 26.1K contracts in the latest reporting period, up from 23.9K previously in the United States market.

The increase in net long positions suggests that speculative traders are becoming more optimistic about silver’s price outlook. A higher net long figure typically reflects growing confidence that prices may continue to advance or remain supported in the near term, as more participants position for potential gains.

While the data do not disclose the specific drivers behind the move, the shift from 23.9K to 26.1K underscores steady, incremental bullish sentiment in the silver futures market, which market participants will be watching closely for signs of further momentum or a possible reversal in positioning.
