The Breakfast Briefing: Wall Street Faces Choppy Day As Traders Wait for Rate Clues

FYI: U.S. stock futures struggled for direction on Tuesday, with investors playing a waiting game in the runup to the key jobs report later this week, as they weigh the prospects for an interest rate rise.

Investors will be watching comments from Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer later this morning, to see whether he continues the hawkish tone taken by Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen.
