US Stock Futures Stabilize, Apple Slips on Mixed Earnings Report
Yahoo Finance ·
U.S. stock index futures rose slightly on Monday evening, aiming for recovery after a sluggish start to November driven by ongoing tech sector losses. S&P 500 futures gained 0.15% to 7,585.50, Nasdaq 100 futures increased 0.3% to 28,208.50, and Dow Jones futures edged up 0.06% to 52,166.0 by 18:57 ET. Apple shares dipped as much as 3% in aftermarket trading after the iPhone maker issued a gross margin forecast of 45% to 46% for the current quarter, missing Wall Street expectations of 46.9% due to soaring memory costs. CEO John Ternus noted that rising memory prices are unprecedented and expected to persist. Meanwhile, AI startup Anthropic reported slowing revenue growth, and Palantir shares dropped 3.1% following profit-taking despite strong third-quarter results, adding pressure to technology valuations.
AI 시장 분석
US weekend stock futures showed mixed movements while Apple fell 4.66%, weighing broadly on tech stocks. Despite strong Q3 earnings, Apple issued a lower-than-expected margin guidance due to surging memory prices. Consequently, investors are closely monitoring cost pressure factors in the tech and semiconductor sectors.
하락 영향
- Semiconductors — Surging memory prices and supply constraints are squeezing margins for hardware manufacturers like Apple and worsening profitability outlooks.
- AI — Slowing performance growth in Anthropic and doubts over high valuations are dampening investment sentiment across the AI sector.
DYAX 전담 분석
Apple's 4.66% stock drop and Anthropic's announcement of slowing performance have increased valuation pressures across tech stocks. In particular, soaring global memory prices are squeezing margins, raising concerns over deteriorating profitability for related companies.
Future stabilization of memory prices and the visibility of AI profitability will serve as key indicators, and if cost pressure persists, the valuation correction for related hardware and tech stocks is likely to be prolonged.
