Dow futures rally as focus turns to Trump’s US infrastructure plan

President is expected to announce a plan to spend $200bn over 10 years

Dow futures rally as focus turns to Trump’s US infrastructure plan

US stock futures climbed on Monday, building on a strong late-session rebound on Friday, with the Dow futures up more than 250 points, MarketWatch reports.

The move came as investors waited to hear from President Donald Trump about his administration’s plan to spend $200bn to spur work on the nation’s infrastructure. Hopes for an economic boost from increased infrastructure spending have helped lift stocks since Trump was elected in late 2016.
