A softer start to the day for Europe, driven lower by weaker sentiment from US trading yesterday. The dour mood also isn't helped by a drag in US futures today as well. S&P 500 futures are down 0.5%, Nasdaq futures down 0.8%, and Dow futures down 0.4% currently.

In turn, that is allowing the dollar to keep a slightly firmer footing across the board to start the day.
