US futures are indicating a flat open today. European equity markets are trading lower, following mixed performances in Asian markets on Thursday. Uncertainty remains high in the markets. Sentiment has been somewhat dampened by Wednesday's poor US 10-year Treasury auction, which still lingers as a concern over potential mishandling of the US economy. A key focus today will be on the US weekly jobless claims report, especially after last week's slower employment growth.
