US stock futures are pointing higher this morning.
The Dow closed up 0.5% on Wednesday, well off its session highs. The S&P 500 added 0.3% and the Nasdaq gained 0.1%.
Canada Goose (GOOS), Coca-Cola (KO) and Six Flags (SIX) will release earnings before the open. CBS (CBS), Ellie Mae (ELLI) and NVIDIA (NVDA) will release earnings after the close.
We're also keeping an eye on US-China trade news. A third round of high-level talks between US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and China's Vice Premier Liu He is currently underway in Beijing.
The discussions could yield a breakthrough that would prevent higher tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods.
Investors around the world have been optimistic about the negotiations so far, especially after President Trump said he would be willing to stretch his March 1 deadline if it appeared that the two sides are getting close to a deal.
