U.S. stock futures were trading roughly flat on Wednesday, after stronger-than-expected inflation data triggered a huge selloff in stocks.
Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 had risen slightly in morning trading in Asia, after U.S. stocks suffered their worst performance in more than two years. But the three indexes gave back their small gains in the futures market, going into the afternoon session slightly down.
