US Futures Hold Steady Before Bank Results and Fed Speeches

U.S. stock index futures remained steady on Wednesday as investors paused to evaluate the market's recent rally while awaiting a new batch of corporate earnings and commentary from Federal Reserve officials. Market sentiment has been supported by hopes that the United States and Iran may return to the negotiating table, despite the ongoing military blockade. This resilience suggests that investors are prepared to rotate into risk assets at any sign of geopolitical de-escalation.
