Has ended recovery attempt from 80.24, Nov 2010 low, after losing key supports and break below 80.24 and 79.75, 1995 all-time low, has triggered sharp decline to post fresh record low at 76.25. Subsequent strong bounce reached 79.75 so far, though break above 80.65/81.00 is required to ease bear pressure, as near-term studies remain negative.
