XLU $44.16: Breaks below triangle support for further downside

Short
AMEX:XLU   SPDR Select Sector Fund - Utilities
xlu
XLU broke below a 7-week triangle consolidation support (as shown on the weekly chart), completing a bearish continuation pattern. Further losses risk 43.49 (March 23, 2015 weekly low) then 43.01 (March 9, 2015 weekly low) next. Below there would expose 41.40 (September 22, 2014 higher low). The 45.46 high (April 20, 2015) should cap near term bounces. Only a break above the latter would defer the downside and stabilize for 45.65 (March 16, 2015 high).
Outlook:
Short term: bearish
Long term: neutral
