Gilt futures remain bearish and the contract traded lower this week, extending the current bearish leg. Recent weakness resulted in a clear break of support at 103.54, the Nov 21 low. This strengthened the current downtrend and signals scope for a deeper pullback. The psychological 100.00 handle was breached yesterday. The focus is on 98.15, the Oct 4 low (cont). Initial firm resistance is seen at 102.50, the 20-day EMA.
