of the pandemic on the global economy and U.S.-China tensions cloud hopes of a
quick recovery in Europe.

On the corporate front, SAP shares are up 3.1% in early trade

announced settlement to conclude litigations proceedings.

Italian state lender Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP) could buy a controlling
stake in Atlantia's motorway unit Autostrade in an initial public

MORNING NOTE: SLIGHTLY IN THE BLACK AND CAUTIOUS (0528 GMT)

European futures are in positive territory, but no clear trend is emerging
yet, as virus worries coupled with U.S.-China tensions keep investors' mood in
check.

The market is looking to corporate earnings for hints on the pace of
recovery, but the outlook in the U.S. remains a major concern as coronavirus
cases continue to rise, while a new stimulus package has still to be approved by
Congress.

Asian bourses were mixed overnight supported by tech stocks, despite the
U.S.-China spat that led to consulate closures in both countries.
