U.S. stock futures steady with Europe in focus
MADRID (MarketWatch) — Wall Street appeared reluctant to build on the prior day’s gains Wednesday, as U.S. stock-market futures pointed lower, with a risk-averse mood creeping in ahead of the two-day European Union summit.
In high-profile U.S. corporate news, more brokers initiated coverage on Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ:FB) overnight. Shares had yet to respond significantly in premarket action.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (CBOT JU2) fell 7 points to 12,479, while those for the S&P 500 index (GLC:SPU2) rose 0.3 point to 1,315.80. Futures for the Nasdaq 100 index (CME:NDU2) fell were flat at 2,548.25.
Oil and gold futures were also slipping, while the dollar steadied.
