Stocks

   

European shares are set to inch higher, following a sharp fall in the previous session sparked by grim U.S. jobs data, and with trading set to be subdued as U.S. markets are closed for a holiday.

By 0630 GMT, futures for the DJ Euro Stoxx STXEc1, for Germany's DAX FDXc1 and for France's CAC FCEc1 are up 0.2-0.4 percent.

The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 .FTEU3 index tumbled 2.6 percent on Thursday.
