Wall Street Summary
US equity futures edged higher overnight despite declines on European markets. Germany bore the brunt of the European sell-off after Russia suspended gas supply to Europe, sharpening an energy crisis that threatens to plunge the euro-zone into recession.
S&P 500 futures climbed 12 points or 0.3 per cent. The US benchmark lost 3.3 per cent last week.
AU Market Watch

ASX futures are up by 0.1%, suggesting the benchmark index will add to its week-opening 0.3% gain. The RBA board will meet during Tuesday's session and is widely expected to lift the cash rate by 50 basis points to a seven-year high 2.35%.
