A bearish theme in Treasuries remains intact and today’s fresh cycle low reinforces current conditions. Note that moving average studies remain in a bear-mode position, highlighting a dominant downtrend. The bear trigger at 109-24, the Mar 27 low, and the 109-00 handle, have been cleared. A continuation lower would open the 108-18, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm resistance to watch is the 20-day EMA, at 110-10+.
