Bonds have bounced in the last month, but now the bears may be coming back.

The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF jumped to its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) yesterday. It was the first test of the SMA since the beginning of the year.

Finally, yesterday’s data could favor more downside in TLT because initial jobless claims, retail sales and Fed surveys suggested the economy is rebounding sharply. The numbers were so strong that the Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow estimate for Q1 growth was revised up from 6.2 percent to 8.3 percent.
