Gilt futures sold off again yesterday before finding support at the 131.73 session low. The continued move lower reinforces underlying bearish conditions with further downside likely near-term. Furthermore, last week's weakness confirmed a resumption of the underlying downtrend that started early August last year. The focus is on 131.53 next, a Fibonacci projection. On the upside, initial resistance is at Friday's intraday high of 132.75.
