That was enough for the risk mood to recover a little but now we are seeing a better recovery ahead of European trading as US officials suggest that the Poland blast might have been Ukraine’s fault.
S&P 500 futures were down around 0.3% earlier but has now erased losses as market sentiment picks up.
This is seeing the dollar lose a bit of ground across the board with the likes of the aussie and kiwi turning flat against the greenback as well. EUR/USD has also pulled itself from around 1.0340 to 1.0370 at the moment as the dollar slips a little.
