Stocks and currencies whipsawed on Tuesday as investors gauged the health of the Chinese economy and reassessed a nascent upswing in shares.
US equity futures fluctuated and European contracts fell after the region-wide Euro Stoxx 50 benchmark jumped 1.7% on Monday.

Share markets across Asia seesawed in mixed trade that saw Hong Kong and mainland China stocks edge higher after early losses and Australian and South Korean markets fall.
The pressure facing stocks followed the sharp swings last year that saw 20% in value wiped from global equities, the worst run since the financial crisis.
