Nice chart! Thanks for sharing. In going over the list of stocks I follow for my newsletter update, I find several have fallen to their first decent support level. I also see some rotation. I recall Bill Gross and that other, new bond guru who had drugs in his desk.... both said on CNBC that when rates were below 2% and rising, that they thought 2.0% on the 10-year was a good rate... now it is nearly 3% so besides REITs, the 10-yr could be in for a nice rally here too. What few say on TV is the US Government has already started the anti-Taper by borrowing significantly less than last year... Oddly, rates are still soaring... at a time there is lower demand. I haven't figured any inflection points to target, but I imagine there is a fairly decent bond trade from the long side in here somewhere soon.

BOND REPORT: Treasury Yields Jump To Fresh Two-year Highs NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Treasury prices extended a slide from last week into Monday, pushing government debt yields up to fresh two-year highs as monetary-policy uncertainty continued to roil the markets. The 10-year Treasury note (10_YEAR) yield, which moves inversely to price, rose 6.5 basis points to 2.890%. The benchmark yield, which has climbed over 75% since the beginning of May, is once again on pace to close at its highest level since July 2011, following a 24.5-basis-point-rise last week. The 30-year bond (30_YEAR) yield rose 5.5 basis point to 3.904%, on track for its highest close since August 2011. The 5-year note (5_YEAR) yield rose 5 basis points to 1.621%, on track for its highest close since July 2011. "Ten-year yields have moved out of the range they've been in since mid-2011. You've broken that technical support level," said Michael Cloherty, head of U.S. interest-rate strategy at RBC Capital Markets.
