  0748 GMT - U.K. mining giant Anglo American's rejection of BHP's $38.8 billion takeover bid confirms a higher premium will likely be needed for the deal to go ahead, RBC analyst Marina Calero says in a research note. BHP's proposal represented a 17% premium to median consensus estimates of the value of Anglo American's assets based on Thursday's closing prices, while average deals in the mining industry offered a 30% premium and a 37% premium in copper deals, according to RBC. "Although an eventual combination could make strategic sense, we view the premium offered as low and think an improved offer would be required, especially considering the complexities around the divestment of the South African subsidiaries," RBC says. Anglo American shares fall 1%, while BHP's London-listed shares trade 0.95% lower. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)

  0651 GMT - The FTSE 100 is expected to open 56 points, or 0.7%, higher, according to IG, having closed on Thursday at 8078.86, likely hitting a new record high as the U.K. index continues its strong run and tracking broad gains in Asian stocks. U.S. stock futures also jumped following strong earnings from big tech companies, analysts at IG say in a note. Focus centers on U.S. PCE inflation data at 1230 GMT as uncertainty remains over what the Federal Reserve's next move will be. Anglo American, which rose sharply on Thursday after receiving a bid from BHP Group, will again be in focus after saying it rejected this bid. (jessica.fleetham@wsj.com)
