Monitor the resistance level of 1.70% and then 1.80%
Candlestick chart showing the the key resistance levels of the U.S. Treasury 10-Year Note

U.S. Treasury 10-Year Note 3 Year Chart

Has a negative technical profile as indicated by the major trend which is sideways and intermediate trend which is down.

The yield would have to move above the resistance levels of 1.70% and 1.80% if the near-term rally in U.S. equities is to continue. This represents the movement of capital from the relative safety of the U.S. Treasury to U.S. equities. A sustained advance of the 10-Year yield to the 2.40% level would indicate the upward movement in commodity based indexes like Canada, Australia and Brazil as investors take on more risk.

Critical support zone for the S&P 500 Index
Technical analysis of the S&P 500 Index showing the critical support zone of 1,285 to 1,300

S&P 500 Index 2 Year Weekly Chart

The critical support zone represents a retracement of 50% from the April, 2012 high to the November, 2012 low. There is money on the sideline that will flow into equities at this level. And the shorts will cover if the S&P 500 Index continues to advance above the support zone.

A confirmed break below this support level is an ominous warning for this U.S. Index.

Against the backdrop of the Eurozone crisis with Greece and Spain in the spotlight, there are four major U.S. reports the week of May 28, 2012:

  1. On Tuesday, the U.S. Conference Board reports on consumer confidence in May. Economists expect a reading of 69.5.
  2. On Thursday, the U.S. Labour Department reports on initial jobless claims in the week ending May 26. Economists expect 370,000 new claims.
  3. On Friday, The U.S. Institute for Supply Management issues its manufacturing index for May. Economists expect a reading of 53.9.
  4. On Friday, the U.S. Labour Department issues its jobs report for May. Economists expect the unemployment rate to remain unchanged at 8.1 per cent, and non-farm payrolls to add 150,000 jobs.

Enjoy your trading week.
