The S&P 500 Futures are up 1.41%, at 5,389, followed by Dow Futures, trading at 39,788, up 1.09%, and finally Nasdaq Futures at 18,675, up 1.58%. This comes after a strong rebound in the regular session on Tuesday, with the Dow rallying 1,000 points and snapping its four-day losing streak, and both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq rising over 2%.

Japan’s Nikkei 225 benchmark index is taking cues from Wall Street and is up 1.72% or 588 points in the early morning session. Tech, export-linked stocks, and insurance companies led the rally.

The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is up 0.3%, following a rebound from its three-year lows on Monday. This comes after the President backed down from his threats against the Fed Chair on Tuesday night, according to a report by Reuters.

Investors will be closely watching the earnings of several large-cap stocks on Wednesday, including Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:PM), AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T), and ServiceNow Inc. (NYSE:NOW), among several others.
