Stock futures gain as major indices snap losing streak

DJIA futures are up 67 points at the current time, indicating follow-up bullish movement after the previous day’s bullish reversal. Traders and investors seem snaping opportunities to collect battered stock as the fear of faster interest-rate increase recede. Despite the situation, traders will continue to stay vigilant for possible reversal.

Today CPI data might give clues on the inflation development and how the Fed will react in the future.
