US equity futures are indicating a lower open as of 05:00 ET. European equity markets are mostly firmer, following broad weakness in Asia, where markets were in risk-off mode following US CPI data, with the Hang Seng leading losses in the region. The early macro focus in Europe is on UK inflation data, with headline inflation softer than expected in January. The US economic calendar is in focus again today with retail sales the highlight.
