India, June 9 -- The major U.S. index futures are currently pointing to a higher open on Tuesday, with stocks likely to see further upside after ending the previous well off their best levels of the day but still mostly higher.
Early buying interest may be generated in reaction to a steep drop by the price of crude oil, as U.S. crude oil futures tumble by more than 2 percent.
U.S. crude oil futures have slumped below $90 a barrel after President Donald Trump claimed the U.S. and Iran could reach a peace deal within "two or three days."
Trump also told reporters the Strait of Hormuz would open "immediately" after an agreement is reached, although his previous claims that a deal is close have not come to fruition.
