| 10:05 EDT | | | Japan PM Abe is set to announce a growth strategy
Japan PM Abe is set to announce a growth strategy on Friday. According to BoJ watchers he will begin phase II on growth, which will focus on corporate tax cut, deregulation and investment policy. Abe has said that he would compile a growth strategy before the G8 summit in June and Tokyo insiders are tipping Friday as the big announcement. USD-JPY ticked up on the talk and briefly traded back over 101.80 from the 101.70 area, but overall it is still struggling to reassert itself on 102.00 amid corporate hedging and large option structures from 102.50 to 103.00. |

| 08:50 EDT | | | U.S. equities are trading fairly flat
U.S. equities are trading fairly flat heading toward the open after dipping with global stocks on a lack of compelling data overnight and very hawkish words from Fed's Plosser who targeted the June FOMC meeting for the start of QE tapering. Import prices fell 0.5%, while exports were 0.7% lower, clearly not flagging inflation risks. In Asia, Japan's Nikkei fell 0.16%, while the HK Hang Seng sank 0.26% and the Shanghai Comp settled 1.11% lower. Over in Europe, the Euro Stoxx 50 is roughly flat after ZEW and IP left something to be desired, while HICP inflation remained very low. The Dow is 2-points higher, S&P gained 1-point and NASDAQ is fractionally lower in pre-open action. In corporate news, Tesla electronic cars continued to rally on its stronger sales forecasts, while Sony's U.S. shares could be in play after investor Loeb called for it to spin off its entertainment unit. Nokia revealed a new version of its Lumia phone, though its shares fell nearly 4%. RIM Blackberry is in focus during its 3-day Live conference. |
