U.S. stocks ended lower on Friday, with indices rolling into the red during the final hour, as credit rating cuts for Italy and Spain offset a better-than-estimated payrolls report. U.S. index futures are gaining this morning as European leaders have been working this weekend to reassure markets that they are making progress toward a solution to the region’s debt crisis, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel said European leaders will do everything necessary to ensure banks have adequate capital. Asian stocks are trading mixed today, Sydney and Seoul-listed stocks are up, but Hong Kong stocks declined as property and energy companies lost ground. We see the Ukrainian stock market opening moderately higher today on low trading activity.
