GLOBAL MARKETS-Stocks fall from records, U.S. yields continue to climb
Stocks fell on Monday, slipping from record highs, partly on caution over rising coronavirus cases globally while elevated Treasury yields continued to support the dollar, which touched its highest since December against a basket of peers. Stocks on Wall Street slipped ahead of the start of an earnings season that arrives with equities at record highs, and as House Democrats introduced an article of impeachment against President Donald Trump. Longer-term Treasury yields were at their highest since March before new long-dated supply coming this week and on speculation of more U.S. fiscal stimulus as Democrats will have control of Congress and the White House.
