Long Term Treasury Bonds: Very Positive Backdrop

thetechnicaltake's picture




 

 

When
I last looked at long term Treasury bonds (click here and here), I stated the following:  

 

"While
the bottom for TLT (or top for TBT and yields) appears to be in, it is not
clear whether this will lead to a sustainable move that would cause price to
break the down sloping trend line seen in figure 2.  My hesitation in
making the call is my (yet to be presented) intermarket bond model.  This
model is still bearish on bonds, but it is not unusual for it to lag the
technicals at this point.  If the model turns bullish on bonds while the
technical set up is developing, then I will have greater confidence in the
sustainability of this price move." 
 

 

At
the end of last week, the inter market bond model has turned bullish on
bonds.  The fundamental and technical pictures are now supporting a higher
move in bond prices.

Normally, I'd want to be short a flight-to-"quality" rally, but with the global economy facing as many dislocations as it currently does -- not this time.
