Stocks are moving higher after a somewhat "blue" Monday amid a bank holiday in the day. The better market mood is weighing on the dollar, reversing its gains. Former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen testifies in Congress as part of her confirmation hearings for Treasury Secretary. In her prepared remarks, Yellen stated that now is the time to spend.

Comments about debt and the dollar – in which Yellen is set to call for market-driven exchange rates – are also watched. Gold has been edging higher around $1,840 ahead of Yellen's testimony.

Cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin has been advancing above the $36,000 level, finding new strength after falling from the highs. Ethereum stands out with a surge above $1,300.
