US futures are still sitting lower, with S&P 500 futures down 0.4%.
10-year Treasury yields are lower, down a little over 2 bps to 1.254% but off the earlier low of 1.241% at least. In FX, the dollar and yen are the two gainers with commodity currencies still on the defensive but off earlier lows as well for the time being.
EUR/USD keeps just below 1.1800 still, sticking with the narrow range in the past week or so while USD/JPY is off a low of 110.00 at around 110.10-15 now.
