US futures nudge lower on the session

<p>Bear in mind that the selling does tend to intensify in US trading as it has been the case since last week.

That is weighing further on European indices as well.</p><ul><li>Eurostoxx -0.7%</li><li>Germany DAX -0.8%</li><li>France CAC 40 -0.9%</li><li>UK FTSE -0.9%</li></ul><p>And this comes amid a backdrop of lower bond yields for once I might add. 10-year Treasury yields are down 7 bps to 4.235% and that isn't enough of a reason for stocks to find a much needed reprieve so far in August.
