- Eurostoxx +0.3%
- Germany DAX +0.8%

This mirrors the mood seen in US futures as well, with S&P 500 futures up 0.4% and Nasdaq futures up by 0.7% as we get things underway. The gains here are also following up on the record closes in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq yesterday once again.
In the major currencies space, the dollar is a little higher as it tries to build on the pullback from yesterday. EUR/USD is at session lows at 1.1885, testing key near-term levels.
