GILTS: Rallying On Wider Risk-Off Flow, Bullish Technical Threat Increases
Mar-31 07:28
Gilts through last week’s highs on the wider risk-off price action stemming from U.S. tariff worry ahead of “Liberation Day”.
- Futures peak at 92.10 before fading back below 92.00, still up the best part of 50 ticks on the day.
- Note that the short-term technical trend in the contract remains bearish, but the bullish threat has increased.
- Initial Fibonacci resistance (92.17) protects trendline resistance drawn off the March 4 high (91.55).
- Yields 2.5-4.0bp lower, 10s outperform on the curve.
- GBP STIRs still around levels we flagged ahead of the gilt open, as most of the early dovish adjustment holds.
- The DMO will hold its consultations regarding FQ1 (April to June) issuance at 15:30BST (investors) and 17:00BST (GEMMs) today.
- We set out our expectations for gilt issuance across FY25/26 in our UK Issuance Deep Dive publication.
- Elsewhere, only lower tier UK economic data is due on Monday, which will leave macro cues at the fore for much of the session.
