believe the technical and cross-market setups lean toward a yield rise into the summer,but recognize that overnight headlines have the potential to mark a decisive inflection for the markets.For the 10-year note,we are looking for a decisive and sustained break through the 2.415%Apr 1 bear gap or 2.52%May 6 bull gap to set the tone.pg.3-8 10-year Bund:Yields cheapen back toward the-0.031%/-0.042%Apr range riches after rallying through that area earlier this week.Sustained moves cheaper than 0.08-0.125%support are needed to get the medium-term bearish outlook back on track.Key resistance comes in near-0.10%.pg.9 10-year BTPs gap to higher yields after bearishly basing near the 2.40-2.50%key chart inflection.pg.9 UK 10-year Gilt yields trade in a short-term range in front of the 1.24-1.25%mid-Mar peaks and behind tactical resistance at the 1.08-1.09%early-Apr pivots.Sustained breaks cheaper than support near 1.30%would confirm a broader trend reversal.Key resistance sits at the 0.90-1.00%chart inflection.pg.10 The 10-year JGBs rebound from support at the 0.001-0.011%Oct 38.2%retrace/Mar 5 peak tags resistance at the-0.065%/-0.066%mid-Apr riches before

market cheapens through 2.435%.3Global Fixed Income StrategyGlobal Fixed Income Technical Strategist09 May 2019Jason Hunter(1-212)270- USGlobal bond markets have rallied back into the richer end of their recent ranges and risk markets have declined to threaten some key short-to medium-term support zones,but heading into a critical overnight session,the retracements have not extended enough to invalidate our medium-term outlooks.We recognize that at these inflections price,positioning,sentiment,and cross-market signaling takes a back seat to policy implantation.All we can do is post up against the setup that preceded the recent set of headlines and keep our stop levels in place.Assuming tonights outcome doesnt result in a material escalation in the US-China trade dispute,we continue to think those setups favor a more significant test of our bullish target zones for equity markets,and a reset to higher global bond yields.The 10-year note bullishly pressures key short-term resistance at the 2.445%Mar 27 61.8%retrace,and 2.415%Apr 1 opening bear gap(Chart 1).As long as that resistance stays intact,we believe yields will not only retest the 2.605%Mar 61.8%retrace,but extend back into the first quarter range.Sustained closes through the 2.52%May 6 gap would restore high conviction in that outlook.Medium-term support within the first quarter range includes the 2.68-2.69%confluence of Fibonacci retracement levels,followed by the 2.77-2.80%range cheaps and 2.80%Oct 50%retrace.Also note the 200-day MA,which currently sits at 2.825%.Chart 1:The 10-year note bullishly pressures the 2.41-2.46%key resistance zone.Sustained closes cheaper than the 2.52%gap are required to restore confidence in our bearish medium-term outlook.10-year note yield,daily

Technical Strategist09 May 2019Jason Hunter(1-212)270- Alternatively,a sustained break through the 2.41%gap would turn our attention back to key medium-term resistance at the 2.35%Oct-Jan.618 swing objective and a confluence of Fibonacci retracement levels near 2.30%(Chart 2).Given the current TY dollar-weighted Put/Call ratio and recent sensitivity of that measure to one-day yield moves,we suspect a 10-year note yield decline to the mid-2.20s is required to create an extreme reading(lower band surrounding price action in Chart 1).Longer-term resistance is clustered at 2.015-2.08%.Chart 2:.Alternatively,a continued rally would turn our attention back to the 2.30-2.355%resistance zone.Given the current setup,a rally into the mid-2.20s is likely required to generate extreme overbought conditions.Longer-term resistance is clustered at 2.015-2.08%.10-year note yield,weekly bars;%(momentum divergence and combined position indicator systematic signal trigger overlay)Source:J.P.Morgan,CQGThe 30-year bond rebound from Oct-Mar trend line support stalled just shy of the2.815%Apr 1 gap after bullishly whipsawing a cluster of levels in the 2.90s.That area has marked a key inflection for the bond over the past few years(Chart 3).The 2.97%50-day MA,2.945%Oct channel trend line,and 2.99%100-day MA currently sit in that area as well.The market rejected nearby medium-term resistance at the 2.77-2.78%Jun 2016 50%retrace and Oct-Jan.618 swing objective in late-Mar.A rally through that area would leave the 2.53-2.63%confluence as the next zone to focus on.That includes the Jun 61.8%retrace,Oct-Jan equal swings objective,and Sep 2017 yield low.Assuming the trade dispute does not escalate,we continue to think the market is basing ahead of a broader retrace to higher yields into the summer.To that end,we have viewed the 3.10%200-day MA,3.11-3.135%first quarter range cheaps,and 3.13%Oct 50%retrace as likely targets.5Global Fixed Income StrategyGlobal Fixed Income Technical Strategist09 May 2019Jason Hunter(1-212)270- Chart 3:The 30-year bond rally came close to testing 2.815%Apr 1 gap resistance after whipsawing the 2.90s key inflection.The Oct channel

important line in the sand for our bearish medium-term outlook.A break richer would open the door for a retest of the 2.11%Mar yield low,which rejected the 2.10-2.15%Dec 2016-Nov 2017 range cheaps.Secondary resistance rests at the 1.95-1.99%Oct 2017 pattern breakdown area and Jun 2016 50%retrace.To higher yields,a sustained break through the 2.33%May 6 gap would restore our conviction in the bearish outlook.The market held initial medium-term support at the 2.42-2.435%Feb range yield lows and 2.43%Jan 61.8%retrace in Apr.Secondary support rests at the 2.57-2.63%first quarter cheaps,which have been our base-case summer target zone.6Global Fixed Income StrategyGlobal Fixed Income Technical Strategist09 May 2019Jason Hunter(1-212)270- Chart 4:The 5-year note rejects the 2.195-2.235%resistance zone with a bearish reversal day.The market needs to clear 2.34%to confirm a short-term trend reversal.Initial medium-term support rests at the 2.42-2.435%Feb range riches/Jan

zone(2.24-2.26%),and now pressures the richer end of the current range.Nearby resistance includes the 2.16-2.205%range riches.Breaks richer would open the door for a test of the 2.11%Sep 2017 50%retrace(Chart 5).Other longer-term chart resistance comes in at the 2.015%Oct-Jan equal swings objective,1.945%Feb 2018 yield low,and 1.91%Sep 2017 61.8%retrace.Conversely,the recent rally leg would lose bullish momentum if the market backs up through the 2.325%May 7 gap.The 50-day MA has contained the mid-Apr and late-Apr backups,and currently sits at 2.37%.We continue to view the confluence of levels surrounding 2.40%as a sticking point for a yield rise.Assuming the current headlines do not escalate to derail our broader outlook,we think the market eventually cheapens through that support and backs up to the 2.57-2.62%Jan/Mar yield highs and 2.625%200-day MA into the late-summer/early-fall.7Global Fixed Income StrategyGlobal Fixed Income Technical Strategist09 May

196-197.5bp Mar-Apr range highs extends toward critical support at 182-183bp(Chart 6).Parameters in that area include the 183bp Jan 9 peak,183bp early-Jan 50%retrace,182.5bp Feb 11/Mar 27 yield lows,and 182bp late-Jan 78.6%retrace.We had viewed the late-Mar defense of that support as a good sign for the broader widening trend.From our perspective,the medium-term bias stays in gear as long as breakevens continue to respect that area.Overhead,initial resistance now includes the 187bp Feb 4 high,190-191bp Mar 12/May 6 pivots/late-Apr 50%retrace,and 192.5bp 50-day MA.Through the 197.5bp 200-day MA,a key area of medium-term resistance is clustered near 200bp.Parameters there include the 199bp Oct 61.8%retrace/Nov 29 peak,201bp Dec-Feb equal swings objective,and 203bp Nov 1 pivot.That also roughly lines up with what had been 2018 range support.Given the confluence of levels and the repeated Mar-Apr failures just below it,we continue to think that area marks a material hurdle for the widening trend.8Global Fixed Income StrategyGlobal Fixed Income Technical Strategist09 May 2019Jason Hunter(1-212)270- Chart 6:The 10-year TIPS breakevens drop from near the 196-197.5bp Mar-Apr

outlook which calls for an improved global manufacturing PMI data trajectory to lead rates higher in the spring/summer,increased concerns surrounding US-Chinese trade policy threatens the bias.Next resistance rests at the-0.07%Apr 1 gap,followed by the-0.09%Mar 28 yield low,the-0.095%Oct channel(now at-0.21%),and the-0.10%late-Mar.618 swing target.Longer-term resistance is layered at the-0.185%Nov-Mar equal swings objective,-0.19%Mar pattern target,-0.205%Jul 2016 yield low,and then the-0.27%2018 pattern measured move.Alternatively,tactical moves back through the 0.033%50-day MA and 0.045-0.055%late-Apr cheaps would start to derail some of the short-term positive momentum.The bearish view would regain traction with a sustained break toward the 0.10-0.15%support zone.Parameters there include 0.10%Apr 17 peak,0.115%Apr equal swings objective,0.125-0.135%Mar 7/19 yield highs,and 0.145%Mar 1 78.6%retrace.Medium-term support includes the 0.195%Nov 8
