Feb 19 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures slipped on Wednesday as investors examined President Donald Trump's latest pronouncements on trade restrictions and awaited minutes of the Federal Reserve's January meeting, expected to be released later in the day.

The U.S. president said on Tuesday that he intends to impose auto tariffs "in the neighborhood of 25%", along with similar duties on semiconductor and pharmaceuticals imports.

Minutes of the U.S. central bank's January policy meeting - where voting members elected to let interest rates stand and Fed Chair Jerome Powell said there would be no rush to cut them again until inflation and jobs data made it appropriate - are scheduled to be released at 2 p.m. ET.

Investors will look for hints on the Fed's rate path in the minutes in light of last week's mixed consumer and producer prices data, coupled with a sharp drop in retail sales, which had sent Treasury yields lower.

"Keep an eye out for further discussions on the impact of Trump's policies and possible insights into how members have changed their views on the timing of further rate cuts, if any, compared to the December forecasts," Karl Steiner, head of analysis at SEB, said in a note.

Traders currently see at least one 25-basis-point rate cut and a 44% chance of an additional lowering by December, according to LSEG data.

Since his inauguration in January, Trump has imposed a 10% tariff on all imports from China, on top of existing levies. He also announced and delayed for a month 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and non-energy imports from Canada.

The S&P 500 .SPX eked out an all-time closing high in the last session, lifting tech heavyweights Microsoft MSFT.O and Nvidia NVDA.O.

At 06:47 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis 1YMcv1 were down 113 points, or 0.25%, S&P 500 E-minis EScv1 were down 10.75 points, or 0.17%, and Nasdaq 100 E-minis NQcv1 were down 32.5 points, or 0.15%.
