- U.S. stock index futures fell on Wednesday as downbeat results dragged chip stocks and markets exercised caution ahead of more economic data and the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision later in the day.

"FOMC meeting is likely to confirm that, from a global perspective, the script has flipped.
