EU Market View
Asia-Pac stocks head into the weekend mixed after the region partially shrugged off the early headwinds from the US. European stock markets are seen opening mixed Friday, as investors try to digest the competing influences of the European Central Bank retaining its ultra easy monetary policies and losses on Wall Street overnight. The ECB decided at its meeting on Thursday to leave its 1.85 trillion-euro ($2.23 trillion) bond-buying program in place, confirming that purchases will run at an elevated pace in the current quarter.
While this was expected, President Christine Lagarde also assured the market that pullbacks in this emergency program were not under discussion despite its prediction of a strong rebound in the euro zone economy from mid-year.
The dollar weakened in early European trading Friday, sticking to narrow ranges as traders turn their attention onto next week’s Federal Reserve meeting following the conclusion of the European Central Bank get-together
Looking ahead, highlights include UK retail sales, Eurozone, UK & US flash PMIs, CBR rate decision, ECB's Lagarde. Earnings from Daimler, Honeywell and American Express
