Gilt futures found support yesterday retracing some of this week's bear leg. Gains are considered corrective though with a bearish cycle still dominating. The move this week to fresh lows reinforces the bearish theme and confirms a resumption of the underlying downtrend that started early August last year. With further downside likely near-term, the focus is on 130.49 next, a Fibonacci projection. Initial resistance is at 131.49, Feb 16 high.
