U.S. December employment report to be released on Friday - with mixed picture so far.

Expectations for jobs growth to have softened overall in December to some 160,000 - with an unemployment rate steady at 4.2% .

If that pans out, the Federal Reserve will likely feel justified with a stance of further cautious rate cuts ahead.

Key developments that should provide more direction to U.S. markets later on Friday :

US December employment report, University of Michigan January consumer sentiment survey, Canada Dec employment report

US corporate earnings: Delta Airlines , Walgreens Boots Alliance , Constellation Brands
