Japan’s yen has seen a dramatic shift in market sentiment, with speculative traders moving from a large net-short stance to a net-long position, according to the latest CFTC data updated on 11 September 2026.

CFTC JPY speculative net positions climbed to 10.8K, a sharp reversal from the previous reading of -92.2K. This swing indicates that traders who were heavily betting against the yen have now shifted to positioning for potential yen strength, or at least reduced their bearish exposure substantially.

The scale and speed of the move suggest a notable reassessment of the yen’s outlook among speculative participants, with positioning data now reflecting a more optimistic—or less pessimistic—view on Japan’s currency in global FX markets.
