• "While the impact of these reductions on interest rate formation has gradually realized, it is suggested that the recent rise in long-term interest rates has been driven, to a certain extent, by fundamental factors such as the rise in the underlying inflation. "
• "The functioning of the JGB markets has been steadily improving as the Bank makes progress in reducing its JGB purchases, with long-term interest rates being formed more freely in the financial markets. "
• "While Japanese investors such as banks and households have gradually increased their JGB holdings, such portfolio adjustments are likely to take some time. "

WTI futures remain in a clear bull cycle and the latest sharp pullback appears to be a correction. Initial key pivot support to watch is $80.22, the 50-day EMA. It has been pierced, however, a clear break of it is required to signal scope for a deeper retracement. This would open $73.35, a Fibonacci retracement. A resumption of gains would refocus attention on key resistance at $93.50, the Jul 23 high.
