S&P 500 futures are retaining their Friday gains, while a slight comeback in the US dollar index (DXY) is tiring. Rising demand for government bonds has significantly reduced their returns. Ten-year US Treasury yields have fallen to 3.81%.

It should be noted that US markets will be closed on Friday in observance of Veterans Day. According to the October inflation report, the Federal Reserve (Fed) will reconsider its policy tightening plans and may reduce its current rate hike pace. But Loretta Mester, president of the Cleveland Fed Bank, thinks that the US central bank should keep its tight policies because inflation is still going strong.
