Wall Street futures, dollar ease in wake of credit blow

Wall Street share futures slipped with the dollar on Monday and Treasury yields rose as concerns about erratic U.S. economic policies were underlined by Moody's downgrade of the country's credit rating. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent used television interviews on Sunday to dismiss the downgrade, while warning trade partners they would be hit with maximum tariffs if they did not offer deals in "good faith". Bessent is off to a G7 meeting this week for more talks, while U.S. Vice President JD Vance and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen met on Sunday to discuss trade.
