Futures Steady as Tech Selloff Eases; Amazon Drops on AI Spending Surge

U.S. stock futures held steady in early premarket trading after a sharp tech-led decline earlier in the week, giving investors a moment to reassess the sector’s rapid pullback. Major index futures hovered near flat, suggesting a more measured tone after days of volatility. While sentiment remains cautious, some traders appear to be stepping back in following the recent selloff in high‑growth names. Amazon shares slipped in premarket action after the company signaled a significant increase in capital expenditures tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure. The planned investment highlights Amazon’s push to expand its AI capabilities, but the scale of spending raised concerns about near‑term pressure on margins. Market attention now turns to upcoming economic data and corporate earnings, which could help determine whether tech stocks regain momentum or continue to face headwinds. For the moment, futures point to a steadier start as investors look for the next catalyst.

Death and Fear: Chaos Unleashed in Moscow Concert Attack

 

In a horrifying turn of events, the Crocus City Hall near Moscow became a scene of terror as four armed assailants calmly approached the metal detectors. Their automatic weapons erupted in short bursts, sending terrified civilians sprawling to the ground in a hail of bullets. The once-celebratory atmosphere turned into a nightmare.

Witnesses recount the chaos. Natalya, standing in line to enter the 6,200-seat concert hall, had just removed her coat. Suddenly, shots rang out from behind, loud and jarring. “It was like a firecracker blast,” she recalls, “but with an automatic burst. I could hear it right behind me.” The Soviet-era rock group “Picnic” was scheduled to perform their hit song “Afraid of Nothing,” but fear replaced anticipation as the gunmen unleashed hell upon the unsuspecting crowd.

Smoke and flames engulfed the venue, and emergency services rushed to the scene. The aftermath left a makeshift memorial, flowers, and candles in memory of the victims. The tragedy reverberated far beyond Moscow, touching hearts across the world.

As investigators piece together the motives behind this senseless attack, one thing remains clear: death and fear have forever scarred the memories of those who witnessed the horror at Crocus City Hall.
