U.S. Stock Futures Steady As Markets Await Fed Minutes And AI Catalysts
Yahoo Finance ·
U.S. stock futures held steady early Monday as softer employment figures eased concerns regarding an imminent Federal Reserve interest rate hike. Market participants are now focusing on Wednesday's upcoming FOMC meeting minutes, alongside Treasury yields and crude oil movements. In premarket trading, PTC Inc. shares skyrocketed 34% after Schneider Electric announced a $22.6 billion acquisition agreement at $205 per share, marking the buyer's largest transaction to date. Meanwhile, Cerebras Systems gained 7% following reassurance from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman regarding their close partnership, and Qualcomm climbed over 2% on a multiyear patent cross-license deal involving Huawei. Tesla shares also advanced after Elon Musk confirmed ongoing discussions with TSMC regarding potential Texas chip manufacturing operations. Crude oil prices drifted lower amid easing Middle East supply worries and planned emergency reserve releases, while investors monitored a wide array of sector-specific catalysts spanning AI infrastructure, energy, and aerospace developments.
