Stock Futures Higher: Fed Leaders Speak as Yields Set Highs

U.S. stock futures are slightly higher in premarket trading as oil and yields paused their recent rally.
The moves come after stocks fell on Monday on higher interest rates with the benchmark 10-Year Yield rising 5 basis point to 5.24%, which is near 20-year highs.
Oil prices are modestly lower under $92 a barrel as markets monitor efforts to reduce Middle East tensions. Citing Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, Al Jazeera reported that Tehran held indirect talks with the U.S. via Qatari mediators in New York.
Investors will watch economic data today with Home Prices, Consumer Confidence and Job Openings due this morning.
