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.

Search for DC Crash Victims Resumes Amidst Trump's Controversial Comments

 

The search for victims of the tragic plane crash in Washington, D.C., continues as rescue teams work tirelessly to recover bodies from the Potomac River. The collision, which occurred on January 29th, involved an American Airlines regional jet and a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter. The crash resulted in the deaths of 67 people, including passengers, crew members, and military personnel.

President Donald Trump has sparked controversy with his comments on the incident. Initially, he blamed diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs for the crash. However, he has since shifted his stance, now claiming that the Black Hawk helicopter was flying too high at the time of the collision. Trump stated that the helicopter was "far above the 200-foot limit".

As the investigation continues, federal transportation authorities are working to determine the exact cause of the crash. Meanwhile, the families of the victims mourn their loved ones, and the nation grapples with the aftermath of this devastating event.
