US stock futures have ticked higher ahead of the market opening, buoyed by optimistic signals from Federal Reserve officials about potential interest rate cuts and a new wave of stimulus measures from China aimed at revitalizing its economy. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 futures are showing slight increases following a period of strong market performance, as investors anticipate a continued rally with some projecting the S&P 500 could reach 6,000 by year-end. The news also includes Boeing's new offer to striking workers in a bid to resolve ongoing labor disputes.
