Stock futures moved higher during the pre-market trading session following an interview on CNBC with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who talked tax cuts and tax code simplification.

About 30 minutes into the session, the Dow is up 35 points, the Nasdaq is down 8 points and the S&P is up 3 points.
