Gilt futures traded lower yesterday and in the process breached the key near-term support at 125.40, Nov 17 low. This undermines the recent bearish theme and highlights the potential risk of a deeper sell-off. An extension of the pullback would expose 124.25, the Nov 1 low. On the upside a recovery above Tuesday's high of 126.24 would ease bearish concerns. The key resistance zone though is at 127.02/29.
