Equity indices from Europe and the United States try to recover in premarket trade ahead of European session launch. DAX is seen opening more or less flat. When it comes to data, the key point of the day will be release of US jobless claims data. Reading is expected to come in millions rather than thousands once again. Apart from that, traders may want to follow newsflow as chatter of US involvement in Saudi-Russia price war gave crude price a lift.
