Stock futures were little changed Tuesday evening as investors braced for the Federal Reserve's next move in its inflation-fighting rate hiking plan. S&P 500 futures added 0.01% and Nasdaq 100 futures hovered at the flat line. The moves came as fears over the ongoing banking crisis showed signs of easing, with investors "heartened by the increasing likelihood that the end of Fed policy tightening is near," said Brian Levitt, global market strategist for Invesco. "Fed tightening cycles typically end with a crisis, and those crises tend to end with policy responses. Investors are looking forward to the latest update from the Fed, at the conclusion of its two-day policy meeting on Wednesday.
