Retracement of 10-Year Treasury yields respected the new resistance level after breaking support at 1.45 percent, signaling a decline to 1.20 percent*. There has been little change in Fed holdings over the past week that could distort bond flows. Declining yields reflect investors leaving stocks for the safety of bonds and warn of a stock market correction. Recovery above 1.70 percent is most unlikely– without QE3 — but would suggest another stock market rally.
* Target calculation: 1.45 – ( 1.70 – 1.45 ) = 1.20
