Global markets:
Overseas, Asian stocks are trading lower on Tuesday with investors awaiting the Reserve Bank of Australias rate decision, though China stocks extended gains a day after its stimulus measures kicked in.
US stocks ended lower on Monday as Treasury yields spiked higher on concerns the Federal Reserve might not cut rates as much as expected. Lackluster results from McDonalds also dampened investor sentiment.
