Positive vibes in early trades

  • German DAX futures +1.1%
  • UK FTSE futures +1.1%

A solid start as European futures are pointing to some catchup to the gains in US stocks yesterday. US futures are also keeping buoyed, with S&P 500 futures up 0.4%, Nasdaq futures up 0.6%, and Dow futures up 0.3% currently.

Major currencies are still little changed for the most part but just take note of the positive tilt here in case we do see the narrow ranges stretch later in the day.
