Market Caution as House Passes Trump’s Tax-Cut Bill

U.S. stock futures remained subdued in premarket trading following the House of Representatives' narrow passage of President Donald Trump’s tax-cut bill. The legislation, which now moves to the Senate, is expected to add approximately $3.8 trillion to the national debt over the next decade.
