US Futures Diverge as Alphabet Plunges and AI Concerns Weigh on Tech Sector
Yahoo Finance ·
US stock futures exhibited a mixed performance during Thursday's premarket session, pressured by a sell-off in Alphabet shares following its third-quarter earnings report and a resurgence of artificial intelligence anxieties. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures ticked up 0.3%, whereas S&P 500 futures dipped 0.4% and Nasdaq-100 contracts retreated 1.3%. As investors evaluated the Federal Reserve's recent rate pause alongside corporate scorecards from Microsoft and Alphabet, Google's parent company disappointed on revenue despite reporting a 103% surge in cloud growth, as worries over free cash flow and AI investment returns weighed heavily. This sentiment spread globally, dragging down South Korea's Kospi index and pushing semiconductor exchange-traded funds and chipmakers like Nvidia, AMD, and Micron lower in after-hours trading. Market participants now await upcoming hyperscaler results from Amazon, alongside crucial economic indicators including the core Personal Consumption Expenditures index, which is projected to show a 3.1% annual increase.

DYAX 전담 분석
Disappointment over Alphabet's third-quarter earnings and concerns about profitability relative to AI investments triggered a broad sell-off in tech stocks. Consequently, Nasdaq futures plummeted by 1.3%, and downward pressure spread to the SOXX semiconductor ETF and Asian markets.
Future tech stock corrections will depend on Amazon's upcoming earnings release and core PCE inflation data (expected at 3.1%). Investors should rigorously verify the ability of AI-related stocks to generate actual profits and consider defensive portfolio adjustments.
