Futures point to a stronger open<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">US equity futures traded higher before the opening bell, suggesting investors were willing to buy into the previous day\u2019s weakness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">S&amp;P 500 futures rose 0.72%, while Nasdaq 100 futures advanced 1.2%. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures gained 378 points, or 0.75%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The Nasdaq outperformed as traders returned to technology shares after a sharp pullback.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The S&amp;P 500 is still down about 4% from its record closing high in early June, reflecting concern that valuations, especially in technology, had moved too far too quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Chip stocks lead the rebound<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Semiconductor names recovered in premarket trading after Wednesday\u2019s selloff pushed parts of the technology sector into correction territory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">NVIDIA, Intel, and Micron Technology rose between 1.2% and 4.7%, helping lift Nasdaq futures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The rebound suggests investors are still willing to back the artificial intelligence trade, even as concerns grow over the cost of building the infrastructure needed to support it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Still, the sector remains under scrutiny. Elevated valuations mean chip stocks may be more sensitive to inflation data, bond yields and corporate spending plans than the wider market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Iran talks help ease oil fears<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Markets also drew support from signs of progress in US-Iran diplomacy, even as both sides continued to exchange attacks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Three Iranian sources and a European official said the two countries were discussing details of a memorandum after reaching a political understanding, though some issues still required further negotiation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Expectations that talks on reopening the Strait of Hormuz remained on track helped push oil prices lower.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">That matters for equities because any sustained surge in crude could worsen inflation and keep pressure on central banks to stay hawkish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Inflation data returns to centre stage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Investors are waiting for the US Producer Price Index and weekly jobless claims, both due at 8:30 am ET.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The data will be closely watched after <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/06\/10\/us-inflation-climbs-to-4-2-in-may-as-energy-costs-drive-price-growth\/\">Wednesday\u2019s consumer inflation report<\/a> showed prices rising at the fastest pace in three years in May, partly because of higher energy costs linked to the Middle East conflict.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">A stronger PPI reading could revive concerns that inflation is becoming harder to contain and make it more difficult for the Fed to signal any policy relief. A softer number, however, could support the rebound in risk assets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Oracle slides while Navan jumps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Among individual movers, Oracle shares fell 7% after the company projected fiscal 2027 capital spending above Wall Street estimates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The update underlined how much cash large technology firms may need to pour into AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Navan moved in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Shares jumped 17.6% after the corporate travel booking company raised its full-year revenue and operating income forecasts, citing stronger business travel demand and growth among enterprise customers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Investors are also watching the expected Friday market debut of Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX, which is set to be valued at $1.75 trillion and could test appetite for richly valued growth assets.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/06\/11\/dow-futures-surge-370-points-5-things-to-know-before-market-opens\/\">Dow futures surge 370 points: 5 things to know before market opens<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US stock futures rose on Thursday as investors moved back into beaten-down technology shares and took some comfort from signs that Washington and Tehran were still exchanging messages on a possible peace framework.
