Hello traders,
Markets moved this week as fresh inflation data and central bank signals reshaped expectations for the months ahead. Softer US CPI supported hopes for easier monetary conditions next year, while uncertainty around upcoming data releases kept risk appetite in check. With policy expectations shifting, traders are increasingly focused on how large players are positioning ahead of potential regime changes.
In this week’s content, we take a closer look at how institutional positioning can reveal longer-term market bias through the Commitments of Traders (COT) report.
