Higher yields today is also part of the equation after the BOJ did announce an adjustment to its YCC program. But we are also seeing in part a catch up to losses yesterday for European stocks. The overall mood today is more balanced though with US futures chasing further gains at the moment. S&P 500 futures are up 15 points, or 0.35%.</p>
