Stock Index Futures point to a Lower Open

Reported by Proactive Investors on Monday, 4 June 2012 (on June 4, 2012)

*Stock index futures fell Monday*

Another round of lackluster Chinese survey data added to worries over global growth prospects, aggravated by last week’s lackluster May US non-farm payrolls data and continued worries over the euro-zone debt crisis.

*Futures on the Dow fell 50 points to 12,053. S&P 500 Index declined 2.2 points to 1,271.70, while Nasdaq 100 lost 3 points to 2,452.*

Asian equities played catch-up on Monday morning, sending Japanese stocks to their lowest level in more than two decades while Hong Kong shares erased year-to-date gains. European equities traded mostly lower, with the Stoxx Europe 600 losing 0.3%. London markets are closed , Monday and Tuesday for public holidays.
