U.S. stock-index futures rose moderately on Tuesday, as strong corporate earnings lifted investors' sentiment in the absence of new information regarding the U.S.-China trade spat. In addition, oil price rose, as supply concerns resurfaced as the first round of renewed U.S. sanctions on Iran took effect, supporting energy stocks as well.
