Gilt futures traded sharply lower Monday, confirming an extension of the latest bear cycle. Despite yesterday’s gains, the short-term outlook remains bearish. The sell-off signals scope for a continuation near-term towards 96.25, a Fibonacci retracement, where a break would further strengthen a bearish threat. On the upside, initial firm resistance to watch is at 98.24, the Jun 28 high. A break would instead be seen as a bullish development.
