Nordic markets are seen opening slightly higher with IG calling the OMXS30 up 0.4% at around 3223. Yesterday's big event was the weak U.S. jobs numbers, which saw the market dial back expectations for interest-rate increases by the Federal Reserve this year, SEB's Maya Westerlund writes. The technology sector weighed on U.S. indices yesterday, but stock markets in Asia are rising this morning and futures pricing points to a positive opening in Europe. The U.S. is closed Friday ahead of Independence Day. European industrial data, Swedish services PMI and several central bank speeches are due today. OMXS30 closed at 3210.41, OMXN40 at 2734.14 and OBX at 1864.59. (dominic.chopping@wsj.com)
