[]U.S. stock index futures were little changed early Tuesday as the market paused after bank angst subsided.

- Dow Jones Industrial Average futures YM00, +0.04% rose 90 points, or 0.3%, to 32721
- Nasdaq 100 futures NQ00, +0.03% eased 32 points, or 0.2%, to 12756

What’s driving markets
[]Another day without any major negative news from the financial sector allowed equity markets to mostly stand their ground Tuesday.
[]Nasdaq futures are underperforming as the calmer mood is seen reducing demand for large technology stocks with sturdy balance sheets — such as Microsoft MSFT, -1.49% and Apple AAPL, -1.23% — that have been considered safe havens in recent weeks.
[]‘’A relief ripple is helping stocks make some gains amid hopes that the volatility, which has wracked the banking sector, has eased off. Futures point to a slightly higher open in…the United States,” said Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets at Hargreaves Lansdown.
[]“With contagion limited for now, hopes that the debacle will have less of an impact on global growth have ticked up a little. Reports that the flow of deposits from smaller lenders to larger banks in the United States has slowed also appear to have helped sentiment,” Streeter added.
[]The reduced concerns about a credit crunch crimping economic activity are helping push up government bond yields. The 2-year Treasury yield TMUBMUSD10Y, 3.553%, which is particularly sensitive to monetary policy, last week fell below 3.6% but was back to 4% on Tuesday.
[]“Improving risk sentiment saw investors pare back their expectations of Fed rate cuts,” said Jim Reid, strategist at Deutsche Bank.
[]An important clue to the likely trajectory of Federal Reserve policy will come on Friday when the PCE inflation gauge for February will be published.
[]Before that, Tuesday will deliver the advanced U.S. trade balance in goods, advanced retail inventories, and advanced wholesale inventories reports for February, due at 8:30 a.m. The January S&P Case-Shiller home price index and the FHFA home price index, will be released at 9 a.m., followed at 10 a.m. by U.S. consumer confidence for March. All times Eastern.

market had proved resilient “at a time when most investors are expecting stock indices to fall” and that traders should note the S&P 500 (SPX) will soon be entering the usually bullish month of April.
[]“SPX, DJIA and NASDAQ remain largely range-bound near-term as part of their uptrend from 3/13. This sideways “grind” in prices isn’t necessarily bearish; However, a move back above QQQ-314 and SPX 4040 will be necessary to help jump-start the next leg of the rally,” Newton added.
[] QQQ, -0.69% is the ticker for the Invesco ETF representing the Nasdaq 100.
