• Asian stocks were primed for a mixed start Tuesday as investors await fresh catalysts after US markets were closed for a holiday Monday.
• Australian stocks fell in early trading, weighed down by BHP Group after the miner missed profit estimates. Equity futures for Japan were little changed while those for Hong Kong moved higher.
• US equity futures fluctuated after Monday’s holiday. A gauge of global stocks sits just 1.1% from its peak after the S&P 500 set a fresh record last week, while the region-wide Euro Stoxx 50 trades near a two-decade high.
• Trading in Treasuries was also shut Monday. An index of the dollar was little changed, while the yen was flat at around 150 per dollar — a level it held in early Asian trading Tuesday. Australian and New Zealand 10-year yields edged higher.
