The Breakfast Briefing: U.S. Stock Futures Point To A Loss As Jitters Grow Ahead Of Powell Testimony

FYI: U.S. equities were threatening to break a string of winning sessions on Tuesday, with futures pointing to a lower open ahead of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s first day of testimony in front of lawmakers.

Attention will focus squarely on what Powell will say about inflation and the pace of interest-rate hikes
