U.S. stock-index futures rose on Friday, pointing to a rebound in the equity market, driven by gains in Alphabet (GOOG) and Microsoft (MSFT) following stronger-than-expected earnings reports, while the March data on the Federal Reserve's inflation gauge did not materially change markets' view on the interest rate path.
