* Weak China data raises expectations for stimulus NEW YORK, March 24 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures edged higher on Monday as a weak reading on Chinese manufacturing raised hopes that the Chinese government would issue new stimulus to combat slowing momentum, though ongoing tensions in Ukraine weighed on sentiment. * Recent momentum on Wall Street has been to the upside, with the S&P 500 hitting an intraday record on Friday, though it subsequently ended the day lower. * Concerns about the region continued on Monday as Russian troops seized a Ukrainian marine base in Crimea, the latest in a confrontation that has prompted the United States and European Union to respond with personal sanctions against some of Russian President Vladimir Putin's political and business allies.
