US: Wall St opens higher as easing trade concerns boost techs

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 84.08 points, or 0.31per cent, at the open to 27,034.07.
The S&P 500 opened higher by 10.65 points, or 0.36 per cent, at 3,002.43. The Nasdaq Composite gained 34.77 points, or 0.43 per cent, to 8,147.24 at the opening bell.
