 MARKET SNAPSHOTS	
 * Indonesia's stock market rose 1.3 percent on
Thursday, moving close to around the six-month highs that it
reached early last week as upbeat manufacturing data from some
nations that boosted hopes for global economic growth and
spurred demand for regional big caps such as banks.	
 * Asian shares and major currencies were stuck in ranges on
Friday ahead of key U.S. jobs data, which will offer more clues
over the state of the world's largest economy, while Greek debt
restructuring talks dragged on. 	
 *  U.S. stocks seesawed in a tight range on Thursday as
earnings reports drove individual shares, while a drop in
jobless claims pointed to a slowly healing labor market before
Friday's  employment report. 	
 * U.S. crude futures fell on Thursday as the previous day's
data showing rising crude oil and gasoline stockpiles continued
to generate bearish sentiment. 	
 * Malaysian crude palm oil touched a new six-week low on
Thursday as the ringgit currency strengthened against the U.S.
dollar, making it expensive for refiners to buy feedstock to
process at a time when demand has slowed.
