US stock futures edged up after President Donald Trump's fast-moving trade policy led to another volatile trading day on Wall Street.

Inflation eased last month, but the data may offer less comfort to businesses, consumers and the Fed than it otherwise would as looming tariffs may keep prices rising.

Those cars can easily be made in the USA!" Labor market data on Tuesday largely met expectations, putting the focus on two key inflation reports later this week: February's Consumer Price Index (CPI) print due Wednesday and the Producer Price Index (PPI) for the same month on Thursday.

President Donald Trump’s tariffs have spooked investors, with fears of an economic downturn driving a stock market sell-off that has wiped out $4 trillion from the S&P 500’s peak last month, when Wall Street was cheering much of Trump's agenda.
