view original post

US Stock Market, Dow Jones Futures, S&P 500 Futures, Nasdaq Futures: Wall Street shares are set to make a lackluster start to the day on Tuesday, a day after the S&P 500—one of the two main US share market blue-chip benchmarks—logged its worst single-day fall in two-and-a-half months after US President Donald Trump announced the onset of 25 per cent tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Meanwhile, a slide in a monthly manufacturing PMI reading also hurt investors’ sentiments, while uncertainty surrounding the global trade situation continued to keep the bulls on their toes given the 47th US President’s aggressive stance on the matter.

At 5:48 am Eastern Time (4:18 pm in India), Dow Jones Industrial Average futures were trading 30 points, or 0.1 per cent, lower at 43,217, while S&P 500 futures were down 2.3 points at 5,858.5 and Nasdaq Composite futures up 15 points, or 0.1 per cent, at 20,483.3.
