| Good morning! US stock futures edged higher on Tuesday, with Nasdaq-100 futures rising 0.13%, Dow Jones futures gaining 0.16%, and S&P 500 futures advancing 0.09%, as investors focused on artificial intelligence (AI), corporate earnings, and the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy decision. Renewed enthusiasm for AI, fueled by Anthropic’s publicly filed IPO investor prospectus, boosted South Korean chip stocks and the KOSPI index, signaling potential strength for US technology shares. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve begins its two-day meeting on Tuesday ahead of Wednesday’s interest rate announcement. Despite hotter-than-expected inflation, markets currently assign only a 10% probability to a rate hike. | |
