March 8 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures slipped on Wednesday after stronger- than-expected private payrolls data highlighted a resilient labor market, a day after hawkish comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell fueled a selloff on Wall Street. At 08:18 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 38 points, or 0.12%, S&P 500 e-minis were down 6 points, or 0.15%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 20.25 points, or 0.17%.
