Stock Market Today: S&P 500, Dow Futures Surge Despite Iran Saying Trump Admin Is 'Negotiating With Itself'

Benzinga

U.S. stock futures rose on Wednesday following Tuesday’s declines. Futures of the major benchmark indices were higher.  President Donald Trump‘s ceasefire hopes were dimmed by Iran on Tuesday, the top spokesperson for Iran's joint military command, Ebrahim Zolfaqari, said that Washington was "negotiating with itself."  Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.34%, and the two-year bond was at 3.87%. The CME Group's FedWatch tool‘s projections show markets pricing an 95.9% likelihood of the Federal Reserve leaving the current interest rates unchanged in its April meeting.  The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:QQQ), which track the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, respectively, were higher in premarket on Wednesday.
