On Tuesday, safe-haven assets rebounded significantly after Russian President Putin signed a decree approving a new version of Russia's basic policy on nuclear deterrence.

German bond yields fell by as much as 8 basis points to 2.292% on that day, gold reached a daily high of around $2626 per ounce, and the USD fell by 0.9% against the yen to 153.28. The European aerospace and defense sector index fell by 0.6% after opening, but later recovered some lost ground, with a decline of 0.2% at the time of writing.
