The Aussie dollar has lifted this morning:
Bonds are mixed:
XJO has broken the February low paving the way for more:
But it is holding off the worst today with US futures up solidly:
Dalian is bumping along at the lows:
Big Iron is still hanging on though FMG is creeping towards is fateful date with $4.50:

Not pretty but could be worse.
