- Wall Street stock futures were little changed in premarket action after the S&P 500 posted a three-week winning streak, with easing rate-hike fears and strong earnings keeping sentiment supported.
- Dow futures slipped while broader equity futures held steady, leaving investors to weigh the Federal Reserve's next policy move amid the mixed signals.
