LONDON/SYDNEY, Oct 24 (Reuters) -European shares and U.S. stock futures rallied on Thursday after equity markets suffered a sell-off the previous day, while the dollar slipped as the euro, yen and pound perked up.

Europe's STOXX 600 .STOXX was last up 0.56% on the day afterfalling by about 1.2% in total over the three previous sessions. Britain's FTSE 100 .FTSE rose 0.55% and Germany's DAX .GDAXI rose 0.65%.

Nasdaq futures NQc1 were up 0.87%after Tesla TSLA.O shares jumped 12% in premarket tradingafter the EV maker reported robust third-quarter profits and surprised analysts with a prediction for 20-30% growth in sales next year.

S&P 500 futures ESc1 were up 0.52%after the stock index .SPX dropped 0.9% on Wednesday.

"The mood turned a bit more positive as Tesla delivered a strong set of Q3 results," Jim Reid, a senior strategist at Deutsche Bank, said. "The automaker is now projecting a slight increase in deliveries for the current year."

Corporate earnings reports were also helping the mood in Europe, with Renault RENA.PA, Unilever ULVR.L and Hermes HRMS.PA all rising after releasing results.

In Asia, Tokyo's Nikkei .N225 rose 0.1% but Hong Kong's Hang Seng index .HSI and China's blue chips .CSI300 dropped more than 1%, following Wall Street stocks lower.

Elsewhere, the dollar index =USD fell 0.29% as the pound, euro and yen rose.The gauge, which measures the dollar against six peers, had risen to a three-monthhigh of 105.47 on Wednesday.

A spate of strong U.S. data and less dovish communication from Federal Reserve officials have lessened the odds of aggressive rate cuts in the months to come.

Adding to market nerves is rising expectations of a possible return of Donald Trump, who could ramp up inflationary trade tariffs, to the White House.

The euro EUR-EBS was last up 0.18% at $1.08015,rebounding slightly after slipping to a three-month low on Wednesday.

A slightly better-than-expected reading in Germany's purchasing managers' index (PMI), a gauge of the health of the private sector, gave the euro a slight lift. A weaker than anticipated euro zone-wide PMI limited gains, however.

The pound GBP=D3 traded up 0.44% at $1.298,supported by a rise in British government bond yields as prices fell on a newspaper report that said finance minister Rachel Reeves was set to give herself a lot more room for borrowing in next week's budget.

Meanwhile, the dollar fell 0.63% against the yen to 151.78 JPY=EBS after a rapid rally in recent days.

In bond markets, benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yields US10YT=RR fell around 5 bps to 4.1879%,pulling back after rising to a three-month high of 4.26% on Wednesday.

Tiffany Wilding, PIMCO economist, cautioned against reading too much into the recent rise in bond yields, saying that historical patterns suggest the change in 10-year yields a month after the Fed's first rate cut has not provided a consistent signal about the magnitude of further cuts.

All the same, strong economic data have led traders to question whether the Fed can afford to be cutting rates too deeply at each of its two remaining meetings this year. Money market prices imply just 40 basis points of easing this year. FEDWATCH

Oil, which had fallen on a large build-up in U.S. crude stocks, recouped some of the losses, with Brent futures LCOc1 up 1.6% at $76.15 a barrel.
