| Good morning! US stock futures rose Thursday as strong earnings from Nvidia (NVDA), Salesforce (CRM), and CrowdStrike (CRWD) boosted technology shares. Dow futures edged up 0.01%, while S&P 500 futures gained 0.48% and Nasdaq-100 futures climbed 1.11%, extending Wednesday’s advance. With Nvidia’s results now behind them, investors are turning to the Federal Reserve’s Jackson Hole Symposium, where officials will discuss the outlook for interest rates. Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh is expected to speak Friday. Meanwhile, bond yields have stabilized after last week’s spike, as markets assess Treasury intervention and the possibility of steady rates. Weekly jobless claims will provide further clues on labor-market conditions. | |
