The sell-off resumed Thursday, with Bund futures edging through and closing below both the 50-dma as well as key Fib support at 175.53 (23.6% Mar - Aug rally) on the continuation contract. This represents a bearish development, opening a more protracted leg lower in the near future. Thursday marked five consecutive sessions of lower lows, opening levels not seen since early June. Markets need a close above 176.00 to re-accelerate any rally.
