US futures are also not hanging in there all too well, with S&P 500 futures now down 18 points, or 0.44%, on the day. In turn, we are starting to see a bit more appetite for the dollar - something which I alluded to earlier here. The greenback is now flat against the euro, pound, franc, and kiwi while USD/JPY is up 0.5% to 135.00.
