US stock futures were little changed on Wednesday after all three major benchmarks advanced in the previous session, as expectations for multiple Federal Reserve rate cuts continued to support the earnings outlook.

Nine of the 11 S&P 500 sectors ended higher, led by materials, healthcare, and industrials.
