U.S. stock index futures surged on Tuesday as the equity market attempted a rebound, following a sharp sell-off in the previous session, which was due to concerns about threats to the Federal Reserve's independence and trade worries. Investors also assessed a mixed batch of earnings reports, including results from two Dow components - 3M (MMM; +6.9%) and Verizon (VZ; +5.6%).
