May 2 -Britain's FTSE 100 .FTSE index is seen opening higher on Thursday, with futures FFIc1 up 0.4%.
* STANDARD CHARTERED: Standard Chartered STAN.L posted a 5.5% rise in its first-quarter pretax profit, beating estimates, as higher interest rates bolstered earnings at the emerging markets-focused lender.

* OIL: Oil prices rose, rebounding from three days of losses, on expectations the lower levels may prompt the U.S., the world's biggest crude consumer, to start replenishing its strategic reserve, putting a floor under prices.
* METALS: Prices of nonferrous metals in London rose as a softer dollar made greenback-priced metals cheaper to holders of other currencies.

* FTSE: Britain's FTSE 100 slipped on Wednesday, led by declines in energy stocks, while investors grew cautious ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's policy decision later in the day, hoping for hints on its interest rate path.
