U.S. stock futures lower ahead of economic data

Oil prices were up 1 percent, building on a 9 percent gain from a day earlier after major producers decided to cut output and support prices. Gains in energy shares pushed the Dow and the S&P 500 to all-time highs on Wednesday, but Wall Street lost momentum due to losses in utility and technology stocks. The Dow closed slightly higher, while the S&P and the Nasdaq finished the day in negative territory.
