On the earnings scene, Deere (DE) traded down 7% pre-bell after the heavy-equipment maker reported fiscal Q3 earnings and revenue slightly above Street views, but tempered guidance, in premarket hours.

On the economic calendar, in addition to the PPI report, is the weekly jobless claims bulletin at 8:30 am ET, followed by the weekly EIA natural gas report at 10:30 am.

Federal Reserve Richmond President Thomas Barkin speaks later Thursday.
