U.S. stock futures edged lower following news that the U.S. and China had reached a tentative trade agreement, with investors reacting cautiously due to a lack of clear details. While the deal aims to ease tensions—particularly around tariffs and rare earth exports—it did not deliver the concrete commitments markets were hoping for. As a result, futures for the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq dipped slightly, reflecting a wait-and-see approach ahead of key inflation data expected later this week. The move underscores Wall Street’s focus on long-term economic indicators over short-term diplomatic progress.
