Recent market activity indicates a shift in sentiment towards the U.S. dollar, with reports highlighting that sentiment has turned 'max short'. Meanwhile, the Canadian dollar has experienced a pullback, giving back some of its recent gains ahead of the month-end. Speculators have also taken a notable stance, building the largest short position on the Canadian dollar in history. This trend is attributed to carry unwinds that are just beginning, suggesting potential volatility in the currency markets as investors adjust their positions.
