Disappointing average hourly earnings numbers twinned with dovish tones from key
Fed members Friday helped boost Treasury futures across the curve. Thursday's
highs remain untouched for now, but concern that a break below the 50-dma would
trigger a spell of sales proved unfounded. Bears need to press 10-yr futures
below 122-20/25 to signal further losses. Below here opens the 100-dma & 38.2%
retracement level at 122-12+/02. Bulls need to recover the Thursday high at
123-21, before returning the focus to the 124-00/05 zone, ahead of the Mar 27
high at 124-31.
