EM CEEMEA CREDIT: Rep of Latvia: EUR BM 10Y - Guidance

• On the commodity front, the medium-term trend condition in Gold remains bullish - moving average studies remain in a bull-mode position highlighting a dominant uptrend. The sideways direction that has been in place since the Apr peak appears to be a pause in the uptrend. A resumption of gains would open $3439.0, the Aug 23 high. Key resistance and the bull trigger is at $3500.1, the Apr 22 low. On the downside, first key support to watch lies at $3268.2, the Jul 30 low.
• In the oil space, a bear cycle in WTI futures remains intact and the latest round of short-term gains appear corrective - for now. A key support at $61.99, the Jun 30 low, has recently been breached, strengthening a bearish theme. A continuation lower would open $57.71, the May 30 low. Key short-term resistance has been defined at $69.36, the Jul 30 high. Clearance of this level would cancel a bear theme. Initial resistance to watch is $66.56, the Aug 4 high.

• Treasuries sit twist steeper following the latest escalation in President Trump’s push against Fed independence, claiming to have fired Fed Governor Cook who has since said he doesn’t have the authority to do so.
