After the equity market rout Wednesday, Treasuries saw firm support across the
curve, lifting 5yr futs to touch 112-11 before pulling back slightly in Asia.
Despite the surge, few key resistance levels were taken out, leaving the
medium-term picture broadly neutral. Daily momentum indicators remain entirely
negative, keeping focus on the recent cycle lows of 111-26+ for bears. Below
there, the Oct 14 2008 low at 111-07+ provides support. Bulls initially need to
reclaim the 100-dma & Aug highs to change the short-term outlook, before
targeting triangle top resistance at 113-22.
