After finding fresh impetus to close up at the 178 handle and the Jul 31 high earlier in the week, Bund futures reverted back to the middle of the recent range Friday. The modest recovery Thursday is yet to put the recent highs under pressure as momentum appeared to dissipate. For now, directional parameters are intact, with markets needing to close above 178.00/01 to re-accelerate any rally. The ultimate target holds at 179.56, Mar 6 high. Support is at 176.83.
