Are Treasury Bonds Peaking At 25-Year Resistance?

If treasury bonds aren’t on your radar, they should be. Many investors and mom and pops own treasury bonds, whether it be a retirement account or pension.

Last month, I wrote an article about the potential for a reversal on the 30-Year U.S. Treasury bond by looking at an inverted chart of the 30-Year Treasury Bond Yield.

Today, I do the same thing but with the 10-Year US Treasury Bond Yield. For one, bonds and bond yields have an inverse relationship. And two, inverting charts can offer a creative (and unbiased) way of analysing where one thinks price is headed next.

In this case, we can see that the inverted 10-Year Bond Yield appears to be putting in a long-term massive bearish “monthly” reversal. This started in March with the largest reversal in three decades at (1).

And last month followed with a “hanging man” topping candle at 25-year price resistance at (2). Note that this resistance is fortified by two converging trend lines.

Finally, momentum remains at the highest level in decades (3).

Taken together, this is a historic bearish reversal for Treasury bonds. Follow through to the downside would confirm this ominous pattern. Stay tuned.

Bond yields falling = bond prices up=equities falling
If that were true, wouldn't that mean equities are going to break to the upside? Typically, falling bond prices are bullish for equities, but this market is so messed now, I'm not sure of anything.
Canis, I have to admit, I am a bit lost as well! XD
