Thursday's reports showed declining business spending, a contraction in manufacturing and a slowing labor market.

Boeing shares soar on profit, aircraft forecast
Boeing Co (NYSE: BA - news) raised its profit and cash flow expectations for 2019 on Wednesday, sending shares up more than six percent amid a boom in air travel and faster production, though it was still fighting supplier delays on its cash-cow 737 jetliners. The world's largest planemaker said it expects to deliver between 895 and 905 commercial aircraft in 2019, up from 806 aircraft it delivered last year, which - although just below company targets - kept it ahead of arch-rival Airbus SE for a seventh year.

MORNING BID EUROPE-Germany's Maas raises idea of Brexit talks
For days now, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas has been niggling away at the idea that there can be new talks with Britain on Brexit. Late last night, Maas said "we need to talk" about whether the accord can be opened, and recalled that any change would require the assent of all 27 other EU states. Bear in mind that the default EU stance is that it can only review its stance on future ties if Britain changes its stance, for example if Britain says it wants a softer Brexit.

The number of Americans filing applications for jobless benefits unexpectedly fell last week, pointing to sustained labor market strength that should continue to underpin the economy.

The claims data covered the survey period for the nonfarm payrolls portion of January's employment report.

FOREX-U.S. data lifts dollar, pound strengthens on hope for soft Brexit
The Philadelphia Federal Reserve said on Thursday its barometer on U.S. Mid-Atlantic (Shanghai: 600558.SS - news) business activity increased more than forecast in January, suggesting resilience in the region's manufacturing sector amid trade tensions between China and the United States.
