What's moving markets today

US stock futures are slightly lower this morning.

Technical problems forced the world's biggest exchange operator to halt trading for over three hours in the US yesterday evening.

CME Group (CME), which is based in Chicago, said in a statement that trading was stopped at 6:39 p.m. CT. Trading resumed at 9:45 p.m. CT after the technical issue was identified and resolved.

The outage affected the CME Globex platform, which is an electronic trading system for futures and options. The platform allows trade in stocks, interest rates, foreign exchange, commodities and other asset classes.

Looking ahead, investors are continuing to watch Fed Chair Jerome Powell today. He'll appear before the House Financial Services Committee after telling Congress yesterday that the central bank is in no rush to raise rates in 2019.
