It’s a rough look as equities continue to come under pressure for the time being. Regional indices are finding last week’s relief to be short-lived now but we’ll see how the US CPI data later today plays out to set the tone before the weekend. US futures are still looking tepid, with S&P 500 futures down just 0.1% on the day.
