US stock index futures turn higher; Dow futures up 0.17%

An early-session reversal in index futures is a sentiment signal more than a fundamental one, and the modest size of the gains suggests positioning adjustments rather than conviction. The move is notable mainly because it shows dip-buying interest returning after weakness, which matters for risk appetite broadly — including crypto and tokenized RWA markets that often track equity sentiment. What's worth watching is whether the rebound holds through the cash open or fades as it did earlier, since futures swings of this magnitude carry little information on their own.
