In a recent update dated August 29, 2025, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) reported a notable decline in speculative net positions for crude oil within the United States. The data indicates that the current indicator has settled at 109.5K, marking a decrease from the previous level of 120.2K.

This downturn in speculative positions could suggest a shift in market sentiment or adjustments in the strategies of traders and investors involved in crude oil markets.
