U.S. futures edged higher Tuesday as investors held out some hope of a deal on stimulus talks. Asian stocks slipped after a weak session on Wall Street overnight.
S&P 500 Index futures climbed after a spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said differences were narrowing in talks. Shares slipped in Japan and Australia. They fluctuated in China, Hong Kong and South Korea. European futures pointed lower. The 10-year Treasury yield steadied around 0.77% and the dollar held losses versus major peers. The yen dipped and the offshore yuan traded around its strongest since July 2018.
Earlier, the S&P 500 Index fell to the lowest in almost two weeks as time draws short to reach agreement on a bill that could pass by Election Day on Nov. 3. The Australian dollar slid after comments from the central bank’s assistant governor that short-term rates could fall below zero. Oil extended losses after an OPEC+ meeting made no mention of any changes to a plan to further ease output cuts from January.
