U.S. Stock Market Update: U.S. stock futures showed a slight rebound after a decline on Thursday, with major indices like the Dow Jones and S&P 500 experiencing significant drops due to economic concerns despite a decrease in annual inflation to 2.4% in March.
Economic Indicators and Predictions: Investors are closely monitoring upcoming producer price index data and consumer sentiment reports, while analysts predict that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates in June following the drop in core consumer price inflation to its lowest level since March 2021.
