NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- U.S. stocks were poised to open lower Friday as eurozone fears continued to weigh on investors.
Dow Jones industrial average (INDU), S&P 500 (SPX) and Nasdaq (COMP) futures were lower ahead of the opening bell. Stock futures indicate the possible direction of the markets when they open at 9:30 a.m. ET.
On Thursday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy agreed to institute a plan to change the EU's treaties in an effort to rebuild trust in the monetary union. But investors weren't assured by the news.
"The meeting between Sarkozy and Merkel failed to really calm market jitters," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital. "They didn't come up with any quick solutions. The market's going to continue to press the will of the EU leaders until they come up with a solid solution."
U.S. stocks slid deep into the red Wednesday, ending down more than 2%, as eurozone fears rumbled on and a preliminary report showed that Chinese manufacturing has slowed sharply. Markets were closed Thursday for Thanksgiving.
U.S. markets will close at 1 p.m. Friday due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

The FCC said earlier this week that it will oppose the merger, becoming the second regulatory body to do so.
