US futures got a bit of a warning shot in the past hour and that is leaving for more cautious tones as we get the session underway. AstraZeneca shares are down 2% as its Phase 3 trial is put on hold amid a setback earlier today here.
In the currencies space, the dollar and yen are a little firmer but the pound is once again the notable mover as it falls to a six-week low against the dollar and euro. Cable is down by 0.4% to 1.2920 levels currently, building on a break below 1.3000 from yesterday.
