21.08.202619:30:00UTC+00Corn Bulls Step In: U.S. CFTC Net Long Positions Jump to 302.1K

Speculative appetite for U.S. corn has strengthened markedly, with CFTC corn speculative net positions rising to 302.1K, up from a previous level of 244.9K. The latest data, updated on 21 August 2026, signal a solid increase in bullish positioning among market participants.

The expansion in net long positions suggests traders are turning more optimistic on corn’s price outlook, possibly anticipating tighter supply-demand dynamics or improved demand prospects. While the figures alone do not reveal the underlying drivers, the jump of over 57K contracts in net speculative exposure highlights a clear shift toward a more positive sentiment in the U.S. corn futures market.
