European stock exchanges closed with decrease of main indexes, as Greece called for a write-down on its debt and investors braced for a referendum this weekend. Markit data firm on Friday raised its composite purchasing managers index for the eurozone – a measure of activity in manufacturing and services – to 54.2 in June from a preliminary estimate of 54.1, thanks to faster manufacturing output growth. A reading below 50 indicates activity is declining, while a reading above that level indicates it is increasing.

Premarket
External background at the opening is moderately negative. Greece lurched into uncharted territory and an uncertain future in Europe's common currency Sunday after voters overwhelmingly rejected demands by international creditors for more austerity measures in exchange for a bailout of its bankrupt economy. Results showed about 61 percent voted "no," compared with 39 percent for "yes," with 100 percent of the vote counted. The referendum — Greece's first in more than four decades — came amid severe restrictions on financial transactions in the country, imposed last week to stem a bank run that accelerated after the vote was called.
