US STOCKS-Futures dip as chip stocks drag, Fed rate decision awaited
U.S. stock index futures fell on Wednesday as chip stocks led losses after downbeat results and markets exercised caution ahead of more economic data and the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision later in the day. Advanced Micro Devices shed 6.7% in premarket trading after its forecast for AI chip sales failed to impress investors, while Super Micro Computer lost 11.5% as the artificial intelligence server maker reported third-quarter revenue below estimates. While most megacap growth stocks fell, Amazon.com bucked the trend to rise 2.2% on reporting quarterly results above market expectations as interest in artificial intelligence helped drive cloud-computing growth.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX futures slip ahead of Fed rate decision
Futures for Canada's main stock index dipped on Wednesday, ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve's interest rate decision later in the day, while investors awaited more domestic economic data to gauge the strength of the Canadian economy. All eyes will be on the U.S. Fed's decision, due at 2 p.m. ET, where the central bank is widely expected to hold the interest rates steady. "Central bankers have made it very clear that interest rates will not be lowered until there is substantial evidence that inflation is trending lower, and robust recent economic data has failed to provide it," said Richard Flynn, managing director at Charles Schwab UK.
