Gilts futures traded sharply lower again Friday however strong support was found at the day low of 134.32. Despite this recovery, a bearish theme remains intact and further downside pressure is likely. Last week's confirmation of a resumption of the downtrend that started early August and the recent impulsive sell-off continues to weigh on sentiment. The focus is on 134.15 next, a Fibonacci retracement. Resistance is at 135.60, Aug 27 high.
