Comment:
U.S. stock index futures edged higher on Wednesday after a Wall Street selloff in the previous session, with investors awaiting more economic data ahead of the outcome of a Federal Reserve policy meeting later in the day. Major U.S. stock indexes dropped more than 1% on Tuesday as regional bank shares tumbled and as investors tried to gauge how much longer the Fed may need to hike interest rates. While the Fed is widely expected to deliver a 25-basis point interest rate hike, investor focus will be on cues if further hikes are on the cards if inflation remains high.
