5-year futures cracked above resistance layered between 118-00-05 Thursday as
the dovish Fed decision continued to reverberate through markets. This puts the
onus further on the bulls, with near-term targets shifting higher to 118-212 and
118-31. The RSI continues to scream overbought, but fundamentals clearly
continue to trump technicals at present, with further cycle highs a real
possibility. Any failure to cement a rally above 118-00, however, could trigger
a short-term reversal. Bears need to clear the May 30 low at 116-12, before
challenging a run at the 116-00 level & 100-dma.
