TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

The dollar rebounded modestly against the yen on Tuesday as Treasury yields pulled back from 15-month lows as investors reassessed the risks of a sharper downturn in the global economy.

The pound stuck to a narrow range with British lawmakers scheduled to vote on a range of Brexit options later in the day.

Global markets recoiled on Monday in the wake of an inversion in the U.S.Treasury yield curve, which has signalled a recession in the past.
