US stock index futures traded in tight ranges Tuesday, steadying after a sharp pullback in technology stocks dragged Wall Street off record highs, with focus remaining on key upcoming inflation data. 

At 06:30 ET (11:30 GMT), Dow Jones Futures traded 5 points, or 0.1%, higher, S&P 500 Futures gained points, or 0.7%, and Nasdaq 100 Futures rose 20 points, or 0.1%.

Losses in tech saw the S&P 500 fall 0.6% on Monday, while the NASDAQ Composite slipped 0.6% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.5%. 

Risk sentiment was also rattled by heightened geopolitical uncertainty over a regime change in Syria, as the Bashar al-Assad government was overthrown after over 20 years of rule.
