Euro net longs had been at the most extreme since 2007 but they cleared out last week on a small pullback in the pair. Canadian dollar shorts, meanwhile, appear to have a much bigger tolerance for pain. AUD longs are also suddenly in vogue.
Overall, these are some huge moves in a report that generally moves very slowly. Look a the spike in New Zealand dollar longs. That's a big reason it was the top performer this week.
