Gilt futures are consolidating. Trend conditions remain bearish though and gains are considered corrective. The recent break of 120.26, Mar 24 low, marked a resumption of the broader downtrend and this has resulted in a print below the 120.00 handle. Further weakness would open 119.75, a Fibonacci retracement. Key short-term resistance is seen at 122.72, Mar 18 high. A break would signal a more meaningful short-term reversal.
