Speculative interest in silver in the United States edged slightly higher, according to the latest Commitments of Traders data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) updated on 24 April 2026. Net speculative positions in silver futures rose to 23.7K contracts, just above the previous reading of 23.6K.

The marginal increase suggests that bullish sentiment among speculative traders remains broadly intact, but without a decisive shift in positioning. The near-unchanged net long stance points to a market that is watching for clearer signals before committing to a stronger directional move in silver. For now, positioning trends indicate steady, rather than surging, confidence in the metal’s outlook.
