The dollar is keeping steadier as we look to get things going in Europe, with the aussie and kiwi tilting towards the softer side as risk sentiment is keeping more cautious.

US stocks snapped an impressive run of gains yesterday and futures are pointing lower so far today, as the upside run looks to take a bit of a breather.

Meanwhile, things in the bond market are still keeping rather choppy with yields edging slightly higher so far on the day after yesterday's drop. As mentioned here, it is going to be a long drawn out battle with no easy answers to the inflation debate.
