NEW YORK (Nov 9): U.S. stock index futures rose on Tuesday to begin the overnight session, which will see trading through the preliminary results of the U.S. presidential election. Stock indexes rose for a second straight session earlier, as investors bet Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton would be elected to succeed Barack Obama. Before rebounding in the last two sessions, the S&P 500 notched a nine-day losing streak, its longest since December 1980. At the end of the regular session, the combined 52-week highs on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq were at their highest since Oct. 25. The iShares MSCI Mexico Capped ETF, known of late as the "Trump ETF," climbed 1.75 percent during the regular session.
