US stock futures slipped on Tuesday after President Trump escalated bombing rhetoric ahead of his fast-approaching deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face strikes to destroy its key infrastructure.

Contracts on the S&P 500 (ES=F) and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F) slid about 0.6% and 0.4%, respectively, unwinding earlier slight premarket gains. Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ=F) fell 0.8% after Wall Street stocks finished in positive territory on Monday.
