March 10, 2015- Stocks Edge Higher After Declines

Trading in the U.S. index futures suggests that Wall Street stocks may open Wednesday's session higher on a day light on the economic calendar. Global cues are mixed, with Asian stocks ending mixed, while the European markets are also seen bouncing back from their losses. Economic data released from China and the U.K. reflected a slowdown in the momentum of global economic activity. With little catalysts to drive trading, even an upward movement could only signal consolidation for the major averages that have dipped to a month's low. The Dow futures are climbing 65 points, the S&P 500 futures are up 10 points and the Nasdaq Composite futures are advancing 15.25 points. U.S. stocks reversed course on Tuesday, declining notably in reaction to Chinese inflation data and the re-ignition of Greek worries, which served to send the dollar higher.
