World stocks eye fourth week of gains on Fed outlook

Investors are focused on further inflation data later on Friday, with the publication of the University of Michigan's preliminary survey of consumers for August.

However, San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank president Mary Daly said on Thursday that while a 50 basis point rate hike next month "makes sense" given economic data, she'd be open to a bigger hike if necessary.
