Sign Up Now! Fundamentally, the U.S. economy is in pretty good shape, as seen by recent more upbeat U.S. economic data. The Federal Reserve also thinks U.S. inflation remains sticky. Both of these factors are likely to limit the ability of the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates. These elements are also U.S. bond-market bearish. Rising U.S. trade tariff threats have only added to worries about rising inflation. A move in September U.S. T-Bond futures prices below chart support at 112 16/32 would become a selling opportunity. The downside price objective would be 108 even, or below. Technical resistance, for which to place a protective buy stop just above, is located at 114 16/32.

The April Jobs Report Could Be Good for T-Bond Futures. Here Are the Levels to Watch Before You Buy.
June U.S. Treasury bond futures (ZBM25) present a buying opportunity on more price strength. See on the daily bar chart for June U.S. T-Bond futures that prices are trending higher and this week hit a three-week high. See, too, at the bottom of the chart that the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is in a bullish posture as the red MACD line is above the blue trigger line and both lines are trending up. Bond bulls have the near-term technical advantage. Fundamentally, this week's downbeat U.S. economic data suggests the Federal Reserve will lower U.S. interest rates sooner rather than later, which would be bullish for T-Bond futures. It's also my bias that Friday morning's monthly U.S. jobs report for April will show some weakness in the jobs sector and will be friendly for T-Bond futures prices. A move in June T-Bond prices above chart resistance at this week's high of 117 21/32 would give the bulls more power and it would also become a buying opportunity. The upside price objective would be 125 even, or above. Technical support, for which to place a protective sell stop just below, is located at 115 even.
