April 30 (Reuters) - European shares opened trade on a subdued note on Tuesday, as investors parsed a deluge of corporate earnings reports from industry heavyweights while keeping an eye out for economic data including the euro zone's inflation for April.

The continent-wide STOXX 600 stocks index was flat, as of 0710 GMT, but set to log its first monthly decline in six.

Investors will monitor the bloc-wide flash April inflation and first-quarter GDP data during the day for clues on the European Central Bank's interest rate cuts beyond June.
