U.S. stock futures point higher after debt ceiling deal
Investing.com -- U.S. stock futures moved higher in subdued holiday trading on Monday after lawmakers in Washington reached a deal to lift the $31.4 trillion debt limit and avert a possible catastrophic default.

A deal to lift the $31.4 trillion debt limit announced by the White House and House Republicans late Saturday would avert a catastrophic U.S. default and boost overall appetite for risk, while also buoying some of the sectors that have been left behind in this year’s tech-led rally, such as cyclical stocks and small caps, investors said. U.S. Treasury note futures were up around 0.2% in a sign that U.S Treasury yields will fall when bond trading resumes.
