European equity futures a little softer in early trades

  • German DAX futures -0.1%
  • UK FTSE futures open flat
  • French CAC 40 futures -0.1%

A little bit of nervous indicator for the cash equity market later. As mentioned with the Nikkei earlier, S&P 500 futures largely surrendered early gains in the day and that is causing a bit of jitters for equity investors maybe.

Let's see how things go when we get the official openings later for the indices themselves.
