The gains here belie the underlying mood as they are mostly a function of catching up to the late comeback in Wall Street yesterday. US stocks were down in the dumps but staged a stirring fight to battle back with the S&P 500 even closing 0.3% higher. The Nasdaq was down as much as 2% but closed down by 0.3% at the end of the day. The overall risk mood currently is more tepid though with US futures down 0.1%, awaiting the US jobs report.
