U.S. stock futures are slightly lower in premarket trading after all three major indexes closed at fresh records on Tuesday.

The benchmark S&P 500 Index (SPX) is on a nine-session upside streak as investor optimism continues amid upside surprises for earnings. The moves come despite oil prices rising with WTI Crude near $96 a barrel. Uncertainty is rising over U.S.-Iran talks with the two countries launching fresh strikes overnight. U.S. Central Command said Tuesday that it intercepted multiple Iranian ballistic missiles and drones and launched defensive strikes.

On the corporate front, Palo Alto Networks (PANW) shares are down slightly in premarket trading despite an earning beat and guidance raise. Economic data will be in focus with ADP Jobs and Services numbers due this morning.
