The gross dollar long against ten IMM currency futures was cut by 28% to a four-month low with more than half of the $8 billion reduction to $20.8bn being due to a 40% reduction in the EUR short to the lowest since February. The JPY short was trimmed by 63% or $3.3bn, a one-year, low while GBP and the commodity currencies were sold.
