The plaintiffs in the proposed class action must "allege more than that the sham interviews were an open secret," Thompson wrote. "While Wells Fargo's history provides some context for the allegedly misleading statements, it is not sufficient to confer [intent to defraud]." Wells Fargo did not immediately respond to similar requests. The plaintiffs had claimed that San Francisco-based Wells Fargo inflated its stock price through nine public statements discussing its "diverse slates" guidelines.

The euro zone inflation numbers showed consumer prices rising 6.9% in March after an 8.5% increase in February, representing the sharpest deceleration since Eurostat started collecting data in 1991. Japan's Nikkei (.N225) also jumped 1% on Friday,as inflation data for the capital Tokyo highlighted broadening price pressures. The euro , which hit a one-week high against the dollar overnight on sticky German inflation data, dipped back under $1.09 again after the euro zone data but was still set for a 3% monthly rise. U.S. crude futures were flat at $74.40 per barrel, while Brent crude futures slipped 0.1% to $78.52 per barrel.
