Here are the five things you need to know before the opening bell rings in New York:
1. Potential market movers -- Nike, GE: Shares in Nike (NKE) were rising by about 3% premarket after the company's earning beat Wall Street's expectations.
General Electric (GE) was another premarket mover Friday, with shares down by about 1%. The company recently agreed to buy Alstom (ALSMY)'s power generation business.
2. Economic announcements: The University of Michigan will report its consumer sentiment index at 9:55 a.m. ET.
3. Calm before the weekend: U.S. stock futures were very slightly lower ahead of the open, continuing the recent trend of modest moves. U.S. stocks closed slightly lower Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 ended the day in the red, while the Nasdaq finished flat.
Oil and gold were little changed too.
CNNMoney's Fear & Greed index shows investors are still feeling very greedy.
