Risk trade....OFF!

Investors clamored to Treasuries as many of them are rethinking the "risk trade". Money is clearly moving toward safe havens such as the U.S. dollar and the U.S. backed fixed income products...particularly short-term instruments.

Most of the day's buying came on the heels of testimony by Bernanke that suggests a largely uncertain economic outlook and low inflation (a bit short of deflation) and given the proposed budget cuts supply concerns have been put on the back burner. Even if large auctions continued Bernanke reassured the markets that foreign demand for Treasuries remains strong.

All in all, Bernake's statements weren't necessarily shocking nor were they new. Nonetheless, the day's events were overall bullish for bonds and notes. Therefore we feel as though we could finally reach our upside target in the September bond futures of the mid 129's to 130ish and just over 124 in the 10-year note. Like we said yesterday: "Nobody has a crystal ball, but the environment is ripe for a bull trap. It seems somewhat likely that Treasuries could see some sort of spike high as buy stops are elected but we doubt that any large gains would be sustainable."
If you have been patiently waiting to play this market from the downside, the mentioned areas should be a good place to start.
