(Corrects paragraph 3 to remove reference to dollar value of
extra purchases being offered by China after the Financial Times
corrected its report)
Oct 9 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures jumped on
Wednesday after latest media reports eased concerns over
escalating tensions between the United States and China ahead of
high-level trade talks starting Thursday.
China is still open to agreeing a partial trade deal with
the United States, Bloomberg reported, despite the inclusion of
top Chinese artificial intelligence startups in a trade
blacklist. Separately, the Financial Times reported Beijing was
offering to increase its annual purchases of U.S. agricultural
products.
At 5:49 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis 1YMcv1 were up 193 points, or
0.74%. S&P 500 e-minis EScv1 were up 24.5 points, or 0.85% and
Nasdaq 100 e-minis NQcv1 were up 72.75 points, or 0.95%.
