U.S. stock futures wavered ahead of jobless numbers and data on
consumer prices.
Futures tied to the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial
Average were flat. The contracts don't necessarily predict market
moves after the markets open.
In Europe, the Stoxx Europe 600 added 0.1% in morning trade, and
it is at its highest level in a year as gains in healthcare and
communication services sectors were tempered by losses in consumer
discretionary and financials sectors.
SSP Group declined 2.1% for a two-day losing streak.
The U.K.'s FTSE 100 gained 0.1%. Other stock indexes in Europe
were slightly lower as France's CAC 40 meandered after the flat
line, the U.K.'s FTSE 250 was lower 0.1% and Germany's DAX lost
0.2%.
The Swiss franc, the euro and the British pound depreciated
0.1%, 0.1% and 0.2% respectively against the U.S. dollar.
In commodities, Brent crude was down 0.7% to $71.74 a barrel.
Gold also slipped 0.5% to $1,885.50 a troy ounce.
The German 10-year bund yield slipped to minus 0.245% and the
yield on U.K. 10-year gilts was down to 0.724%. 10-year U.S.
Treasury yields were little changed at 1.488% from 1.489% on
Wednesday. Yields move in the opposite direction from prices.
Indexes in Asia mostly climbed as Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose
0.2%, Japan's Nikkei 225 index climbed 0.3% and China's benchmark
Shanghai Composite added 0.5%.
