Free AccessUS TSYS: Nobody Anticipated Huge Upside Job Gain
US TSY SUMMARY: Nobody saw that coming: Huge upside gain in May employment:
+2.5M vs. -7.5m estimate, or at best -- not so soon! 10YY climbed to 0.9555%,
30YY tapped 1.7593%; June S&P futures climbed to 3210.5 high.
- Rate futures cratered following the totally unexpected NFP +2.5M vs. -7.5M
est! (Bbg survey breakdown for NFP yesterday: of the 75 respondents, the highest
est was -800k). Obviously better selling across the curve on heavy volumes w/
stops triggered on the way, bank portfolio and real$ buying intermediates to
long end, prop acct buying on the follow. Moderate late session buying and
unwinds of tactical steepeners noted.
- Still weaker but off initial post data lows (volumes doubled to near 1M Sep
10Y futures in the minutes after the data have receded) TYU added only 200k over
an hour as mkts mulled unexpected jump in jobs data. Futures traded sideways
with a gradual late session bid, while yld curves extended new 3+ year highs -
scaled back a little late.
- The 2-Yr yield is up 2bps at 0.2141%, 5-Yr is up 6.6bps at 0.4742%, 10-Yr is
up 8bps at 0.9035%, and 30-Yr is up 4.3bps at 1.6748%.
TECHNICALS:
US 10YR FUTURE TECHS: (U0) One Way Traffic
*RES 4: 140-27 0.618 projection of Feb 6 - Mar 9 rally from Mar 18 low
*RES 3: 140-00 Round number resistance
*RES 2: 139-25 Contract high, Mar 25
*RES 1: 139-13+/16 High May 15 / High Apr 21 and key resistance
*PRICE: 136-31 @ 16:15 BST, Jun 05
*SUP 1: 136-22 Low Jun 5
*SUP 2: 136-20 Low Mar 25
*SUP 3: 136-11+ 38.2% March Decline
*SUP 4: 135-30+ 100-dma
A stunning jobs report saw bond markets globally take a leg lower, with US 10yr
futures plumbing a new multi-month low. This puts an end to the recent bullish
trend and raises the risk of a longer-lasting downtrend from recent highs. This
opens 136-22 and, further out, the COVID crisis lows of 133-21. To repair the
upside argument, bulls need to take out 139-16, Apr 21 high to confirm a
resumption of the uptrend to target 139-25, Mar 25 contract high and the 140-00
handle.
AUSSIE 3-YR TECHS: (U0) Floor in For Now
*RES 3: 100.00 - Handle Psychological Resistance
*RES 3: 99.840 - Range projection on a break of 99.780
*RES 1: 99.780 - High Apr 01 and bull trigger
*PRICE: 99.690 @ 16:33 BST Jun 05
*SUP 1: 99.690 - Low Mar 27 / Jun 05
*SUP 2: 99.645 - Low Mar 20
*SUP 3: 99.580 - 100-dma
The short-end of the Aussie bond market holds the lower-end of the recent range.
The contract continues to trade within a range that has been in place since
peaking at 99.780 on Apr 1. A break of this resistance is required to confirm a
resumption of the broader uptrend and open 99.840, the range projection and the
100.00 psychological level further out. The base of the range expanded lower at
the futures roll, now sitting at 99.695 and marks the key near-term support.
AUSSIE 10-YR TECHS: (U0) Stumbles Further
*RES 3: 99.4850 - High Mar 10 and bull trigger
*RES 2: 99.3600 - High Apr 01
*RES 1: 99.2250 - High Apr 17
*PRICE: 98.8200 @ 16:34 BST, Jun 05
*SUP 1: 98.7800 - Low Mar 23
*SUP 2: 98.7210 - 61.8% March Sell-off
*SUP 3: 98.5700 - Low Mar 20
The outlook remains weak Friday after the firm May US jobs report. Having taken
out key support at 99.0200, the Apr 9 low, bears now target late March lows at
98.90 and the Fib support at 98.7210. On the upside, key resistance is located
at 99.2250, the Apr 17 high. Clearance of this level would instead be bullish.
JGB TECHS: (U0): Remains Weak
*RES 3: 154.56 - High Mar 13
*RES 2: 153.50 - High Mar 16
*RES 1: 153.06 - High Mar 31 and key resistance
*PRICE: 151.18 @ 16:36 BST, Jun 05
*SUP 1: 151.06 - Low Mar 24
*SUP 2: 150.61 - Low Mar 19 and key support
*SUP 3: 150.46 - 1.0% 10-dma envelope
JGB took another leg lower amid a global bond sell-off Friday, exposing levels
not seen since March. The range breakout works in favour of bears, with 50% Fib
retracement giving way in the process. Key supports are few and far between
until 151.06, but more importantly 150.61, which marks the March sell-off low.
TSY FUTURES CLOSE: Weaker by the bell but well off post NFP lows, spec unwinds
and profit taking in steepeners contributing, best volumes in weeks (TYU>2M) as
risk tone revitalized after the huge difference in reported May job gains of
+2.5M vs. -7.5M estimated job losses. Update:
* 3M10Y +7.253, 74.381 (L: 63.72 / H: 78.981)
* 2Y10Y +6.089, 68.637 (L: 60.69 / H: 72.152)
* 2Y30Y +2.668, 146.055 (L: 140.907 / H: 154.518)
* 5Y30Y -1.848, 120.33 (L: 119.601 / H: 128.526); Current futures levels:

* Sep 5-Yr futures down 10.5/32 at 124-24.75 (L: 124-18 / H: 125-05.5)
