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.

Tragic Airstrike in Northern Gaza Claims Over 60 Lives

 


In a devastating incident, an Israeli airstrike on a five-story building in the northern Gaza Strip has resulted in the deaths of at least 60 people, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The building, located in Beit Lahiya, was sheltering displaced Palestinians, many of whom were women and children.

The strike occurred early Tuesday morning, causing significant casualties and leaving many others injured or trapped under the rubble. Emergency services are working tirelessly to rescue those still buried beneath the debris.

This incident is part of a larger ongoing conflict in the region, with Israel conducting extensive military operations in northern Gaza. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) stated that they are aware of civilian casualties and are investigating the incident. The IDF emphasized that their operations target Hamas militants and that efforts are made to avoid civilian harm.

The humanitarian impact of this strike has been profound, with local hospitals overwhelmed by the influx of wounded individuals. The international community continues to call for a ceasefire and increased humanitarian aid to the affected areas.
