US TSYS: Hang Seng Bull Kicks Off Global Risk-On
US TSY SUMMARY: Hang Seng bull market helped kick off global risk-on tone
Monday, equities buoyed despite ongoing spread of Covid-19 virus.
- Rates fell to new session lows after ISM non-mfg index rose 11.7pt to 57.1 in
June, offsetting the downturn caused by the pandemic.
- Some desks trying to wrap their head around post ISM data moves, fast
extension of session lows after the data beat expectations but has since
rebounded back near top end of session highs. Market was a "bit stretched" into
the release one desk explained, despite the decent early volumes, sellers lost
conviction after the move, suggesting shorts covered on lack of more significant
follow-through.
- Turned out to be an inside range session on light volume as Tsys climbed off
second half lows w/equities reluctant to climb higher amid late US$ selling. Yld
curves holding steeper profile.
- The 2-Yr yield is up 0.6bps at 0.1586%, 5-Yr is up 1.1bps at 0.3069%, 10-Yr is
up 1.5bps at 0.6841%, and 30-Yr is up 1.7bps at 1.4445%.
TECHNICALS:
US 10YR FUTURE TECHS: (U0) Bullish Focus Still Intact
*RES 4: 140-00 Psychological round number
*RES 3: 139-25 Contract high, Mar 25
*RES 2: 139-22+ 0.618 projection of Jun 5 - 11 rally from Jun 16 low
*RES 1: 139-14/16 High Jun 30 / High Apr 21 and key resistance
*PRICE: 138-29 @ 16:15 BST Jul 06
*SUP 1: 138-23+ Low Jul 2
*SUP 2: 138-07 Low Jun 16 and key near-term support
*SUP 3: 137-22 Low Jun 10
*SUP 4: 136-22 Low Jun 5 and the bear trigger
Despite the pullback off last week's, 10yr futures remain bullish. Price has
recently been edging closer towards key resistance of 139-16, Apr 21 high. This
level marks the trigger for a recovery towards major resistance at 139-25, Mar
25 high. A break of 139-25 would represent an important technical break and
confirm a resumption of the broader uptrend, exposing initially the 140-00
handle. Key support is at 138-07, a break would risk a deeper pullback.
AUSSIE 3-YR TECHS: (U0) Testing Key Support
*RES 3: 99.780 - High Apr 01 and bull trigger
*RES 3: 99.750 - High May 21 and 22
*RES 1: 99.730 - Congestion highs between Jun 15 - 22
*PRICE: 99.700 @ 16:17 BST Jul 06
*SUP 1: 99.690 - Low Jun 05 and key support
*SUP 2: 99.665 - 100-dma
*SUP 3: 99.645 - Low Mar 20
The short-end of the Aussie is trading at the lows of last week testing support
at 99.700. A break of this level would signal scope for an extension lower
towards 99.690, Jun 8 low. Clearance of these two levels would also represent a
potentially significant technical break. On the upside, the initial hurdle for
bulls is at the 99.730 congestion, highs between Jun 15 - 22. A break would
signal scope for a climb towards 99.780, Apr 1 high further out.
AUSSIE 10-YR TECHS: (U0) Bulls Find Support
*RES 3: 99.3600 - High Apr 02
*RES 2: 99.2250 - High Apr 17
*RES 1: 99.1350 High Jun 29
*PRICE: 99.0500 @ 16:18 BST, Jul 06
*SUP 1: 99.0200 - Low Jul 2 and 3
*SUP 2: 98.9725 - 50.0% retracement of the Jun 8 - 29 rally
*SUP 3: 98.9342 - 61.8% retracement of the Jun 8 - 29 rally
Aussie 10yr futures recovered off last week's lows of 99.0200 and maintain a
more positive tone for now in line with the overall bullish trend. This keeps
the focus on initial key resistance at 99.1350, Jun 29 high where a break would
open 99.2250, Apr 17 high. On the downside, initial key key support has for now
been defined at 99.0200. A break of this level would expose a deeper decline
towards 98.9725, a Fibonacci retracement.
JGB TECHS: (U0): Rebounds Off Recent Lows
*RES 3: 153.50 - High Mar 16
*RES 2: 153.06 - High Mar 31 and key resistance
*RES 1: 152.29 - HIgh Jun 12
*PRICE: 151.80 @ 16:20 BST, Jul 06
*SUP 1: 151.18 - Jun 8 low
*SUP 2: 150.61 - Low Mar 19 and key support
*SUP 3: 150.50 - 1.0% 10-dma envelope
JGBs bounced last Thursday, reversing some of the losses seen earlier in the
week. Prices remain above the key 151.18 level, Jun 8 low where a break would
unsettle bulls. The recovery off 151.57 is a positive development and signals
scope for a climb towards 152.29, the Jun 12 high. A rally through the 50-dma at
152.16 would also represent a bullish development. Key supports for now has been
defined at 151.18.

extend session highs into the closing bell on light volumes (TYU<650k). Equities
