Global bond yields were cooling off, but stocks, notably in the tech sector, were dropping in Europe, playing catch-up to a selloff on Wall Street.

Technology stocks were bearing the brunt of European equity losses on Friday, playing catch up to a rough day on Wall Street. But U.S. stock futures were inching up as surging bond yields eased off.

U.S. stock futures ES00, -0.04% YM00, -0.18% COMP, -3.52% inched higher, after the worst session since Jan. 29 for the Dow industrials DJIA, -1.75% and a 3.5% slide for the Nasdaq Composite COMP, -3.52%, its worst one-day loss since September.
