* Even so, futures remained sharply higher after China's manufacturing economy staged a moderate rebound in August after slowing for several months, while Australia's economy grew at its fastest pace in three years last quarter on a boost in household spending.

Dow Jones industrial average futures DJc1 climbed 86 points, and Nasdaq 100 futures NDc1 gained 23.5 points. (Reporting by Leah Schnurr; editing by Jeffrey Benkoe)
