US stock futures edge lower as Pakistan talks loom over Iran ceasefire
U.S. stock futures slipped Thursday as traders awaited a two‑week Iran ceasefire and peace talks in Pakistan, with S&P 500 futures down about 0.3% and Dow/Nasdaq futures also lower after Wall Street’s rally the prior session. Tehran accused the U.S. and Israel of violating the peace proposal while Lebanon’s role remained contentious, and Iranian negotiators head to Islamabad for talks as Trump said U.S. forces would stay in the region until a real agreement is reached. Oil prices rebounded on the news and investors weighed hawkish Fed minutes as they positioned for the next move.
