Good Morning:

Better than expected Spanish bond sales helped the euro.
Spain sold 2 and 10 year bonds.  The 2 year yield will be 3.463% versus 3.495%.
Spanish 10 year bonds yielded 5.743% versus 5.403%.
Even though the 10 year yield was higher than the last auction-it stayed below the key 6% level.
Spanish/German 10 year spread widens to 421 bps from 410.
Italian/German 10 year spread widens to 390 bps from 376
French/German 10 year spreads widens to 140 bps from 129

Oil is trading under $103/bbl
Gold & Silver are also lower.

Asian and European equity markets were mixed-US Futures are higher.

HAVE A GREAT DAY & GOOD LUCK
