Open: | 8.66 | | | U.S. stock futures were pointing to more gains on Wall Street after Wednesday's turnaround that saw the S&P 500 and Nasdaq log new intraday highs. The Nasdaq also closed at a new high, and indications this morning point to the Dow joining the record run on an easing of fears about a possible escalation of U.S.-Iran hostilities. The projected gains for the Dow would be enough for it to set a new intraday high at the open. It needs a little less than 128 points.

(Reuters) | | China's Vice Premier Liu He, head of the country's negotiation team in China-U.S. trade talks, will sign a "Phase One" deal in Washington next week.

(HPQ) has once again rejected a takeover bid by Xerox (XRX), saying the proposal undervalues the computer and printer maker, and that the fact that Xerox has secured financing for the $33 billion offer is not a basis for a takeover discussion. | | | | Uber (UBER) has discontinued upfront ride pricing in California, in response to a new law which requires the ride-hailing service to classify more of its drivers as employees rather than independent contractors. | | | | Walmart (WMT) said it opened 134 new stores in Mexico last year, the biggest expansion by the retailer in that country since 2013. | | | | Voya Financial (VOYA) is exploring a possible sale, according to people briefed on the matter who spoke to the Financial Times.
