1. The record-setting goes on

The Trump stock market rally seems to have fade out in other parts of the world.

But in the U.S. signs point to a continued climb for the Dow Jones industrial average, which hit a fresh record high on Monday.

U.S. stock futures are moving up, though the gains are small. European markets are mixed in early trading. Asian markets ended the day with mostly negative results.

Meanwhile, the sharp sell-off in the bond market has eased. Yields on many 10-year government bonds are coming back down.

Donald Trump's promises to unleash massive infrastructure spending and gigantic tax cuts had spooked bond investors. The rate on 10-year Treasury notes had surged to 2.3%, from 1.77% before the election.

2. The sky is (not) the limit

Warren Buffett is betting big on U.S. airlines, according to a regulatory filing disclosed Monday.

During the third quarter, Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRKB) took stakes in American Airlines (AAL), United Continental (UAL) and Delta Air Lines (DAL).

Berkshire also made an investment in Southwest Airlines after the quarter ended, he told CNBC.

The investments mark a surprising reversal for the man who once lambasted the industry's thirst for cash. In 2007, he called airlines a "bottomless pit."

Buffett's money decisions are closely monitored by the investment community. Don't be surprised if these airline stocks rise again Tuesday as investors copy Buffett’s trades.

3. China’s Yuan (CNY) is free falling

China's currency continues to sink against the dollar.

Beijing has allowed the yuan to tumble past six- and seven-year lows in the wake of Trump's election win. The fall continued Tuesday, with one dollar buying around 6.86 yuan, the weakest the Chinese currency has been since the dark days of the global financial crisis in late 2008.

The Chinese government is known for retaining tight control of its currency.

4. Earnings and economics
