SOFR (3-Month) COT Report
The Commitment of Traders (COT) report shows how the largest traders are positioned in SOFR (3-Month) futures each week. The CFTC splits open interest into speculators (managed money) and commercial hedgers, so you can see who is leaning which way. Tracking when SOFR (3-Month) speculative positioning reaches an extreme, and how speculators line up against commercials, is one of the most widely followed sentiment tools in futures.
In interest-rate futures, dealers and real-money accounts manage duration while speculators express macro rate views, so SOFR (3-Month) positioning is a key gauge of rate sentiment.
