US stock futures are slightly higher this morning, with E-mini S&P 500 contracts up around 0.1%, as investors weigh stronger factory activity against the risk of higher borrowing costs. The ISM Manufacturing PMI jumped to 55.6 in July, its best reading since May 2022, signaling busier factories, improving hiring, and easing cost pressures. The 10-year Treasury yield sits near 4.69%, keeping a possible September interest rate hike on the table.
