European markets also varied, with Stoxx Europe 600 unchanged, gains for Getinge Series B and Wallenstam Series B, and losses for Adevinta and Schibsted. The FTSE 100 experienced a slight dip, while France's CAC 40 and Germany's DAX registered minor gains.
The Wall Street Journal Dollar Index rose to 100.53, indicating a strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Bond yields for the German 10-year Bund and U.S. Treasury increased by several basis points, reflecting an uptick in borrowing costs.
Meanwhile, Asian markets declined with Japan's Nikkei and China's Shanghai Composite experiencing falls. Hong Kong markets remained closed.
In the commodities market, barrel prices for Brent crude and WTI crude dropped, pointing towards a decrease in energy costs. This drop in oil prices could potentially impact energy stocks and the broader market sentiment.
