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.

Stock Market Today: Wall Street Bounces Back in Premarket Trading Following Monday’s Drubbing


In a remarkable turnaround, Wall Street is showing signs of resilience after Monday’s tumultuous session. As corporate earnings reports continue to roll in, investors are catching a break from their concerns about potential Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. Here’s a snapshot of the market dynamics:

  • Asian Shares React: Asian shares mirrored the slump on Wall Street, with the Shanghai Composite index declining by 1.7% to 3,007.07. Despite this, the Chinese government’s surprising report of a 5.3% annual growth rate in the first quarter of the year failed to buoy investor sentiment.

  • Yields and Pressure: The recent surge in U.S. bond yields has cranked up pressure on stocks. However, premarket trading indicates a bounce-back for Wall Street, offering hope to investors who weathered Monday’s drubbing.

As the market navigates these fluctuations, keep an eye on corporate earnings releases and the Fed’s policy signals. The road ahead remains uncertain, but today’s rebound provides a glimmer of optimism for traders and investors alike. Stay tuned for further developments.
