Futures on the S&P 500 (ES=F) and the Nasdaq-100 (NQ=F) traded roughly flat after the two indexes notched record highs the day before.Sentiment has turned more buoyant in markets this week as bullish earnings estimates have helped lift major indexes to all-time highs.

Bond yields retreated on Tuesday but are still hovering near multidecade highs.On Wednesday, the Fed's meeting minutes will provide clues as to whether the central bank's rate hike in September represented a one-off or whether the Fed's thinking indicates more rate hikes ahead.
