U.S. Stock Index Futures Adding Value

Spread bets and CFDs on U.S. stock indices
U.S. stock index futures are on the rise, and spread betting and contracts for differences should consider U.S. stock indices. Even though U.S. stock indices are down a bit right now, U.S. stock index futures are looking toward future growth, reports Bloomberg:

``If we see some good numbers, that will give support to the market,'' said Jonathan Monk, who oversees $1.3 billion in U.S. equities at Aerion Fund Management in London. Concern about ``the housing market and inflation are what's been hitting stocks.''

S&P 500 futures expiring in September added 4.3 to 1535.3 as of 8:36 a.m. in New York. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures gained 23 to 13,650 and Nasdaq-100 Index futures increased 7 to 1979.
