U.S. index futures rose in pre-market trading on Thursday, with
tech stocks boosted by strong earnings and a positive forecast from

At 6:42 AM, Dow Jones (DOWI:DJI) futures were up 36 points, or
0.09%. S&P 500 futures advanced 0.53%, and Nasdaq-100 futures

On Thursday’s economic agenda, the Chicago Fed will release the
national activity index for April at 8:30 AM. At the same time, the
Labor Department will publish unemployment insurance claims data
for the week. At 9:45 AM, S&P Global will release the

both the manufacturing and services sectors for May. Finally, at
10:00 AM, the Commerce Department will reveal April’s new home

key indicator of economic growth.
European markets are registering gains today, driven by investor
reactions to recent inflation in the UK and new economic data from
the Eurozone. Meanwhile, markets are also digesting the impact of
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s unexpected announcement of a
general election on July 4, a decision that ends months of
speculation about the date of the important national vote. Based on
current opinion polls, the ruling Conservative Party is expected to
be overtaken by the opposition Labour Party.
Asian markets closed with mixed performances. The Shanghai Index
in China recorded a significant drop of 1.33%, while the Hang Seng
Index in Hong Kong saw an even larger decline, falling 1.70%. On
the other hand, Japan’s Nikkei showed a positive performance,
rising 1.26%. In South Korea, the Kospi index showed a slight
decrease of 0.06%, and in Australia, the ASX 200 also closed down,
with a reduction of 0.46%.
During Wednesday’s session, the U.S. stock market exhibited
volatility following the release of the minutes from the last
Federal Reserve meeting. The Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq
closed down 0.5%, 0.3%, and 18%, respectively. The minutes suggest
that the Fed might keep interest rates high for longer than
expected, due to the need for greater confidence in slowing
inflation. This caused surprise and cautious reactions among
investors, who were also awaiting the results from
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) after the close, which
exceeded forecasts.

are BJ’s (NYSE:BJ), Ralph Lauren
(NYSE:RL), Polestar (NASDAQ:PSNY), TD
