MORNING BRIEFINGS
3 Numbers to Watch: Portugal bonds, German manufacturing, US jobsTradingFloor
The US payrolls were supposed to be the main event, but after Europe's and England's central banks surprised with their dovishness yesterday, the focus might shift to next week's Fed minutes.

Market Preview: Spotlight on US non-farm payrollsTradingFloor
European markets are expected to open mixed on Friday. Investors await US non-farm payrolls data later today which is likely to show a slower pace of job additions in June. Also, today's German factory orders data will garner market interest.

EUROPE
Forward, Central Bankers?Evan Soltas

Forward guidance; will it work?MacroScope / Reuters
This was a big move for a central bank which had hitherto spent 14 years insisting it would never “pre-commit” on interest rate policy. But it may not be decisive and further options are limited.
