Stock futures pause after Dow hits record - Fox Business

U.S. stock futures were little changed after the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed the prior week at a record high.

Futures on the S&P 500 strengthened 0.1% and futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average were flat. Changes in equity futures don’t necessarily predict moves after the opening bell.

In Europe, the Stoxx Europe 600 meandered after the flat line in morning trade as gains in consumer staples and healthcare sectors were offset by losses in industrials and real-estate sectors.
