A bit more of a tepid mood in early trades
- German DAX futures -0.2%
- UK FTSE futures flat
- Spanish IBEX futures -0.1%
This mirrors the mood in US futures with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures flat, while Dow futures are down 0.1%. There's just a lack of appetite in the market at the moment as we look to get things going in Europe.
In Asia, the Nikkei closes up 0.3% while the Hang Seng is down 0.1% and Shanghai Composite up 0.5% going into the closing stages of the day amid more mixed/cautious trading.
