European stock markets are seen opening higher after Janet Yellen backtracked on her interest rates comments and endorse Fed's independence. German DAX futures trade just slightly below 15,000 pts mark, hinting at around 100 points bullish price gap at cash session open.
While today's economic calendar is dominated by revisions of services PMIs for April, there are also a few readings that may move the markets. ADP report for April is a key release of the day and will serve as a final hint ahead of Friday's NFP report release. It is expected to show a strong jobs growth of 810k.
