Bad news out of Europe pulled European stocks lower Monday but not US stocks where the Dow ended only fractionally lower at 12,653. Portugal is now facing prohibitive costs in funding its junk-rated debt, raising the prospect of a new bailout for the country. Debt negotiations over Greece are progressing with reports saying debt holders stand to lose 70 percent of their investment. The euro fell 0.7 percent to $1.3130 against the dollar.
Demand for the safety of US Treasuries continues to rise to extend last week's gains. Buyers are accepting lower yields with the 30-year right at 3.00 percent for a 6 basis point decline on the day. Light crude is steady at $99 with gold steady at $1,730.
