Markets are still digesting a more dovish Fed Powell but have not gotten too carried away in running away with a rate cut for September. Fed funds futures show just ~83% odds of a 25 bps rate cut, with the US jobs report on 5 September set to be the be all and end all in confirming the central bank decision.

In the equities space, European stocks are looking a little sluggish with month-end just around the corner. That comes as US futures are also looking fairly tentative awaiting Wall Street's return from the weekend. S&P 500 futures are down 0.2% following the stronger gains at the end of last week.

Elsewhere, Treasury yields are a little higher while gold is also not doing all too much and is trading flatter after being down a little earlier in the session. Cryptos are starting to intrigue further at least with Ethereum down nearly 4% in yet another rejection of the $4,800 level while Bitcoin is nearing $110,000 and threatening a drop below its 100-day moving average for the first time since April.
