Slightly better tones in early trades

  • German DAX futures +0.3%
  • UK FTSE futures +0.2%
  • Spanish IBEX futures +0.2%

This follows the mild losses seen in trading yesterday for European indices, though the early mood is helped by record closes in the Nasdaq and S&P 500 late on yesterday. US futures are also keeping calmer, up by ~0.1% to start the session.
