Global equities headed for fresh all-time highs on Thursday as stocks climbed in Asia. Crude oil advanced toward $46 a barrel.
Asian shares saw modest gains and European equity futures were steady. S&P 500 futures ticked up after the benchmark pulled back from a record. Treasury futures edged higher after U.S. bonds ended Wednesday flat. The dollar held an overnight decline.
Traders are off for the Thursday Thanksgiving holiday that will keep U.S. markets closed. A deluge of data on Wednesday brought the first back-to-back rise in weekly U.S. jobless claims since July, an uptick in durable goods orders and a widening trade deficit.
