EUROPEAN EQUITY FUTURES HIGHER
European stock futures are trading higher on Friday, rebounding from a down day on Thursday before key U.S. inflation data and as markets look ahead to France's vote on Sunday.
Euro STOXX 50 futures STXEc1 are up 0.5% after dipping 0.1% the day before. It was a worse picture in France, where the CAC 40 .FCHI slid over 1% with markets cautious ahead of the first round of voting.
Leader debates in both France and the U.S. took place on Thursday, the latter closely watched by global markets before America votes for a new president in November.
"The general consensus among pundits is that Trump had the better performance," says Jim Reid, global head of macro research at Deutsche Bank in a note.
"Going into the debate, the national polls were neck-and-neck...it'll be interesting to see if the debate affects that."
Markets are now looking ahead to the "Fed's preferred inflation measure", the PCE figures, which are due at 1230 GMT. Economists polled by Reuters expect the annual growth for both headline and core PCE to have eased to 2.6% in May.
A lower reading could see markets price more easing from the Fed in the coming months.
In corporate news, Adidas ADSGn.DE and Puma PUMG.DE could be in focus after U.S. rival Nike NKE.N tumbled in after-hours trading on Thursday as it forecast a surprise drop in revenue. Nike shares are currently down almost 13% in Frankfurt NKE.F.
