Nasdaq Futures Climb As Markets Weigh AI Spending, Fed Policy And Key Stock Moves
Yahoo Finance ·
U.S. stock futures advanced early Friday as investors evaluated questions surrounding OpenAI against robust demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure. By 4:00 a.m. ET, Nasdaq futures gained 0.8%, S&P 500 and Russell 2000 futures added 0.3%, and Dow futures rose 0.1%. Sentiment was shaped by hawkish remarks from Fed officials, including Christopher Waller and Alberto Musalem, signaling potential additional rate hikes. In premarket trading, semiconductor equities like Nvidia and Micron rebounded over 1%, while Apple shares dropped more than 1.5% following reports of reduced component orders for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max by 15-20%. Meanwhile, SpaceX climbed over 3% after agreeing to acquire low-band spectrum licenses, putting its wireless initiatives in focus as third-quarter earnings approach.

상승 영향

- Telecom — SpaceX's agreement to acquire low-band spectrum licenses highlighted expectations for wireless business expansion, acting as a positive catalyst for related stocks.
하락 영향
- Real Estate — Hawkish remarks from Fed officials raised the possibility of additional rate hikes, serving as a negative factor for real estate and interest-rate-sensitive sectors due to concerns over rising financing costs.

DYAX 전담 분석
Hints of potential additional rate hikes by senior Federal Reserve officials and OpenAI's downward revision of annual revenue estimates acted as downward pressure on growth stocks overall. On the other hand, semiconductor and optical component stocks succeeded in a pre-market rebound confirmed by solid demand.
The bullish scenario is that AI infrastructure demand continues, driving tech stocks to record highs, while the bearish scenario is that the Fed's hawkish stance triggers rising bond yields, compressing valuations. Key indicators include the CME FedWatch interest rate freeze probability and major Big Tech earnings.
