AUSSIE 10-YEAR TECHS: (M5) Bear Cycle Remains Intact For Now

Jun-03 22:15
  • RES 3: 96.501 - 76.4% of the Mar 14 - Nov 1 ‘23 bear leg
  • RES 2: 96.207 - 61.8% of the Mar 14 - Nov 1 ‘23 bear leg
  • RES 1: 95.960 - High Apr 7 
  • PRICE: 95.755 @ 16:09 BST Jun 03
  • SUP 1: 95.415/95.300 - Low May 15 / Low Jan 14  
  • SUP 2: 95.275 - Low Nov 14  (cont) and a key support
  • SUP 3: 94.707 - 1.0% 10-dma envelope

Aussie 10-yr futures rallied well on the RBA rate decision, reversing a small part of recent weakness. Recent price action pressured prices through to new pullback lows last week. Next support undercuts at 95.420 (pierced), the Feb 13 low, ahead of 95.275, the Nov 14 low and a key support. Clearance of this level would strengthen a bearish condition. To the upside, a recovery of recent losses would shift attention to resistance at 96.207, a Fibonacci retracement point.

US TSYS: 10-Year Yield Trying To Build a Base

Jun-03 22:11

TYU5 reopens at 110-16+, up 0-02 from closing levels in today’s Asia-Pac session.

  • Friday night the US 10-year yield had a range of 4.4043% - 4.4716%, closing around 4.45%. 
  • Treasury yields ended a little higher across the board overnight, yield curves ended relatively unchanged(2s10s -0.27 at 49.85, 5s30s -0.02 at 95.84).
  • MNI US DATA: The JOLTS report for April was on balance one of relative stability in another look at early reaction to Trump administration policies. Job openings surprisingly increased (7391k (sa, cons 7100k) in April after a marginal upward revised 7200k (initial 7192k) in March) whilst the hire rate pushed to its highest since September although the quits rate pushed back lower again after what to us was a surprising uptick back in March.
  • MNI US DATA: Factory orders came in weaker than expected in April, with the 3.7% M/M contraction exceeding the 3.2% drop expected by consensus. Ex-transport orders told the same story: -0.5% in April (+0.2% expected), failing to improve from March's -0.5%. This marked the biggest monthly pullback in manufacturing orders in 15 months, and more than reversed March's rise to put manufacturing orders only slightly higher than in sequential. Clearly, there was some pulling-forward of orders in March, ahead of anticipated tariff impacts.
  • The 10-year yield continues to find good support around 4.35/40%. Yields need to hold above this area to continue to build for a move higher.
