Decreasing trade tensions with China and less fear about rate hikes from the Federal Reserve have helped push stocks higher.
Stock index futures pointed to a strong open on the first day of March, as Wall Street looked to build on its best start to a year in nearly 30 years.
The moves in the premarket come a day after the major indexes posted solid monthly gains in February, pushing them to their best start to a year since 1991. The Dow and S&P 500 were both up more than 11 percent through Thursday's close while the Nasdaq Composite is up 13.5 percent.
