EURO BUND & US 10 YEAR T-NOTE
It was mid-March when U.S. CPI data was higher than expected and everyone feared from a possible inflationary environment. Bonds sold-off and equities rallied with commodities. On the 17th of March I reviewed Euro Bund & 10 Year T-Note prices and concluded that it is still early to call for an inflationary environment and a major correction in govt. bonds. Both govt. bonds were testing their long-term moving averages (200-day) and were likely to rebound from these levels.

Since the last update bonds have rebounded sharply and deflation and RISK OFF environment is back again. Equities are weak and bonds are strong. Long-term uptrends are still intact BUT with one major warning; weekly RSI divergences! Though bonds are moving higher, momentum is not supportive of the last 8 months price action. Price is trying to move higher with weaker momentum. Watch govt. bonds with a positive bias and place an intermediate/long-term stop at the 200 day moving averages. For Euro Bund strong support is at 136 and for U.S. 10 Year T-Notes strong support is at 129 levels.
