Sept 10 (Reuters) -Wall Street was set for a higher open on Tuesday ahead of key inflation data later this week that could firm up bets on the size of the interest rate cut that the Federal Reserve is expected to deliver on Sept. 18.
Apple's AAPL.O shares were down nearly 1% in premarket trading, with China's Huawei launching a tri-fold smartphone hours after the debut of a new iPhone.
The iPhone maker also lost its fight against an order by EU competition regulators to pay 13 billion euros ($14.34 billion) in back taxes to Ireland as part of an EU crackdown against sweetheart deals between EU countries and multinationals.
The focus this week continues to be on the August inflation reading on Wednesday that is likely to show a slight moderation in the headline number to 2.6% on a year-on-year basis, while it is expected to remain unchanged at 0.2% on month.
"If we get an inflation report that is too hot that may cause concern, or if it is too soft you may see markets respond negatively because that's going to increase the recession risk," said Erik Knutzen, multi-asset chief investment officer at Neuberger Berman.
The producer prices report will follow the CPI data on Thursday.
Money markets are all but convinced that the U.S. central bank will begin its policy easing cycle later this month, with a 73% chance of a 25-basis point cut and a total easing of 100 bps by the end of 2024, according to CME's FedWatch Tool.
Wall Street's main indexes recorded gains of more than 1% on Monday as investors looked for bargains following a week of steep losses triggered by worries over the health of the U.S. economy amid elevated interest rates.
Later on Tuesday, Philadelphia will be center stage when Kamala Harris and Donald Trump meet in a highly anticipated televised debate that could weigh heavily on the November election. The two, who have never met in person, will square off at 9 p.m. ET (0100 GMT) for a 90-minute debate hosted by ABC News.
At 08:33 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis 1YMcv1 were up 24 points, or 0.06%, Nasdaq 100 E-minis NQcv1 were up 51.25 points, or 0.27%, and S&P 500 E-minis EScv1 were up 13 points, or 0.24%.
Among other movers, Oracle ORCL.N jumped 8.3% after beating estimates for quarterly results and forecast second-quarter revenue growth above expectations, boosted by growing demand for its cloud offerings.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise HPE.N dropped 5.3% after the AI server maker announced a $1.35 billion mandatory convertible preferred stock offering to fund its acquisition of Juniper Networks JNPR.N.
