US futures are pointing to a slightly higher open today. European equity markets have opened in the positive territory, following mixed Asian market trades. Market attention is shifting back to Fed policy after ECB's 25-bp cut. It's expected to be close call between move of 25bp and 50bp. BOE expected to keep policy unchanged next week with next cut more likely in November. A BOJ rate hike in December is anticipated though some also see October hike at earliest.
