Following a sharp rebound in the previous session, U.S. stock futures pointed to the downside on Wednesday, reflecting a mixed performance in overseas markets and renewed strength in the Japanese currency against the dollar. In economic news, U.S. private sector employment added 57,000 in February, marking the weakest growth since July 2003. Investors also awaited news on the economy''s health with the Fed''s Beige Book release.

 
The U.S. dollar was lower against other major currencies in European trading Wednesday morning. The euro traded at $1.3125, up from $1.3121 late Tuesday in New York. The British pound traded at $1.9300, up from $1.9292. The dollar bought 116.44 Japanese yen, down from 116.67.
