The Australian Bureau of Statistics released its trade data for Australia on Thursday. Australia's trade deficit widened to A$3.89 billion in April from A$1.23 billion in March, missing expectations for a rise to a deficit of A$2.3 billion. March's figure was revised up from a deficit of A$1.32 billion.

The increase in deficit was driven by lower export prices of key commodities such as iron ore and coal continued to weigh.

Exports plunged by 6% in April, while imports increased by 4%, driven by a 69% gain in the machinery and industrial equipment.

The Federal Reserve released its Beige Book on Wednesday. The report showed an optimistic picture of the U.S. economy despite the mixed U.S. economic data in the second quarter.

The growth was characterized as "moderate" and "modest" in the most districts.

Consumer spending rose across all districts except Richmond, according to the Beige Book.

Employment and wages increased slightly, while prices "were stable or ticked up".

German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said on Wednesday that there is no reason to be optimistic that a deal between Greece and its creditors can be reached soon. He added that new reform proposals submitted by the Greek government indicated only little changes.

"I have no information that anything decisive has changed in terms of substance," Schaeuble said.

St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard changed its tone on the Fed's monetary policy outlook on Wednesday. His tone is cautious now.

"I think that will all be transient and it will turn out that we'll have stronger data later in the year and that will enable us to get going with the normalization process. But I would like to see that confirmed in the near term so that we can get on with our normalization process," Bullard said.

The St. Louis Federal Reserve president pointed out that the weak U.S. economic growth in the first quarter was temporary, but he added that he would like to see stronger data.

Bullard is not a voting member on the Federal Open Market Committee this year.
