U.S. stock futures rallied in Asian trade on Monday as authorities announced plans to limit the fallout from the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), while investors wagered a rate hike this month was no longer a certainty.

Such was the concern about financial stability, that investors speculated the Fed would now be reluctant to rock the boat by lifting interest rates by a super-sized 50 basis points next week - and might not even hike at all.

Such talk, combined with the shift to safety, saw yields on two-year Treasuries tumble a further 22 basis points to 4.36%, a world away from last week's 5.08% peak.

Longer-dated yields , however, climbed and the curve steepened as inflation remained a clear concern.
