(Reuters) -Wall Street stock index futures were subdued on Wednesday as investors weighed U.S. trade negotiations ahead of President Donald Trump's July 9 tariff deadline and awaited payrolls data for hints on the monetary policy path. The Nasdaq and the S&P 500 closed lower in the previous session, pausing after a record run driven by optimism about the U.S. striking trade deals with its key partners as well as expectations of deeper interest-rate cuts to come. Trump said on Tuesday he was not thinking of extending the July 9 deadline for imposing tariffs and expressed doubts that an agreement could be reached with Japan, although he said he expected a deal with India.
