| Pressure On Yield Curves Remains Intact Posted: 16 Mar 2011 07:36 AM PDT The allure of bonds remained intact despite a significant rebound from panic-stricken selling in Tokyo stocks and is likely to remain intact until radiation-watch ceases to be the norm.

| Long Term Treasury Bonds: Very Positive Backdrop Posted: 16 Mar 2011 07:35 AM PDT 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.

| GBP/CHF Targets 1.44 And 1.4150 After Bearish Breakout Posted: 16 Mar 2011 07:33 AM PDT GBP/CHF - The GBP/CHF is broke below the 1.49 support, which was also the 61.8% retracement level. The 4H chart shows a extension of 161.8% of the 2/27 rally. We might pause here a little, and see a pullback. So far it has been a very week pullback. Let's see if the support at 1.4690 holds for a pullback towards 1.49, or maybe the 3/11 low at 1.4850. If not, a break below 1.4690 (close in the 4H below it) we should be suggesting bearish continuation towards 1.44.
