2233 GMT -- Australian stock futures are pointing to a higher open for the S&P/ASX 200. ASX futures are up by 0.3% ahead of Monday's session, suggesting that the benchmark index should recover some of the ground lost across back-to-back weekly losses. The ASX 200 fell 1.3% last week as hopes of interest-rate cuts diminished. Ahead of Monday's open, ANZ reported a 10% drop in annual net profit on higher costs and impairments tied to the lender's overhaul under its new CEO. AGL Energy said it had agreed the A$750 million sale of a stake in a renewables provider. U.S. stocks provided a mixed lead on Friday. The DJIA rose 0.2%, the S&P 500 edged 0.1% higher, and the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.2%. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
