(Reuters) -U.S. stock index futures swung between gains and losses on Friday after China increased its tariffs on U.S. imports to 125% in the latest escalation of the ongoing trade war, with markets keenly awaiting bank earnings later in the day. China's move comes after U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday ramped up pressure on the country by lifting tariffs to an effective rate of 145%, even as he announced a 90-day tariff reprieve on most trading partners.
