Intel’s Weak Earnings Put Futures on Ice After a Choppy Week

U.S. stock futures lost momentum Friday morning as Wall Street tried to steady itself after several days of sharp swings. Dow futures slipped, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures hovered slightly lower, signaling a cautious start to the trading day. The hesitation came largely from Intel’s disappointing earnings report. The chipmaker’s results and weaker outlook weighed heavily on tech sentiment, sending its shares sharply lower in pre‑market trading. Investors had hoped for stronger numbers given the industry’s AI‑driven momentum, but Intel’s update suggested ongoing challenges in key segments like data‑center chips. The broader market has been wrestling with volatility all week, driven by shifting economic expectations and uneven corporate results. With the S&P 500 on track for another weekly decline, traders appear reluctant to make big moves until they see clearer signs of stability.

Wall Street Opens 2025 with a Dip as Tesla's Delivery Woes Weigh Down Market


Wall Street kicked off 2025 on a somber note as the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 248.02 points (-0.58%) to 42,296.20. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also experienced slight declines, with Tesla's disappointing delivery figures being a significant drag on the market.

Despite the overall market downturn, there were some bright spots. Chipmakers Nvidia and Broadcom saw their shares rise, and crypto-linked stocks like **MicroStrategy** also gained. Analysts remain optimistic about the year ahead, predicting strong growth, albeit at a slower pace compared to previous years.

Investors are now looking ahead to see if the market can recover from this initial stumble and build momentum as the year progresses.
