LONDON/SYDNEY: Stocks rallied and bonds retreated on Monday as the United States and China agreed to restart trade talks, leading investors to pare wagers on aggressive policy easing by the major central banks.

China agreed to make unspecified new purchases of U.S. farm products and return to the negotiating table.Advertisement E-Mini futures for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq rose 1.1per cent and 1.7per cent each too whereas in the bond market Treasury futures slid 10 ticks as yields on 10-year notes edged up 4 basis points to 2.04per cent.
