Johannesburg - I-Net Bridge The JSE began the day directionless on Thursday, as investors awaited data in overseas markets.

A local trader said that the market was looking very quiet this morning with little news to sway trade.

At 09:12 local time, the JSE All Share [JSE:J203] index was virtually unchanged (0.01%). Platinums lifted 0.32%, gold stocks took up 0.29% and resources edged up 0.10%.

Banks collected 0.13%, and financials rose 0.12 while industrials declined 0.11%.

The rand was bid at R8.08 to the dollar from R8.15 at the JSE's close on Wednesday. Gold traded at $1 646.02 a troy ounce from $1 635.25 at the JSE's previous close, while platinum was quoted at $1 502.50/oz, from $1 481.50/oz at the previous close.

Dow Jones Newswires reported that Asian stock markets were mostly lower on Thursday, as easing inflation in China failed to overcome worries over fresh stresses in Europe's economy.

China's consumer price index rose 4.1% year on year in December, slower than the 4.2% in November. Economists polled by Dow Jones Newswires had forecast a median 4.0%.

The fifth straight month of moderating inflation gives Beijing more room to implement easing measures, but analysts say the authorities are still likely to move cautiously in applying stimulus to the economy.

Market participants expect the European Central Bank to keep interest rates on hold at its first meeting of the new year, and see ECB President Mario Draghi as damping expectations for a major debt purchasing program over the coming months.

The US economy improved across all regions in the final six weeks of 2011, boosted by strong holiday sales, the US Federal Reserve said in a report on Wednesday.

But the Fed's studies of regional economies, known as the "beige book," showed that persistent weakness in housing kept a lid on growth in most areas, while inflation pressure was broadly limited, leaving the door open for more central bank stimulus.

European stock markets may nudge higher to start, with bunds and gilts mixed. The euro and oil futures are a bit higher, with spot gold barely changed.
