U.S. stock-index futures traded mixed on Thursday, as investors took a breather after a two-day rally that lifted the market to its best levels since early March. The risk sentiment was also suppressed by growing tensions between Washington and Beijing, especially after China's parliament voted to move forward with security legislation for Hong Kong.
