Stock Market Today: Dow, S&P 500 Futures Edge Higher as Nasdaq 100 Is Flat and 10-Year Yield Holds
S&P 500 futures are up 0.12% and Dow futures up 0.02% before the bell on Friday, while Nasdaq 100 futures are flat and the 10-year yield sits at 5.103%.
Wall Street is set for a quiet start on Friday. S&P 500 futures were up 0.12% and Dow futures up 0.02% about three hours before the New York bell, while Nasdaq 100 futures were down 0.02%. Futures are contracts that trade ahead of the open, so they hint at the first move but do not guarantee it.
The short version
- Stocks: S&P 500 futures are at 7,624, Dow futures at 52,401 and Nasdaq 100 futures at 28,379.75, all close to flat.
- Thursday's backdrop: The S&P 500 closed down 0.35% at 7,592.4 and the Russell 2000 fell 1.66%.
- Bonds: The 10-year Treasury yield ended Thursday at 5.103%, up from 4.998%.
- Oil, gold, crypto: Brent is near $96 a barrel, gold near $3,889 an ounce and Bitcoin down 2.96% at $69,262.
- Next: Nvidia reports on Tuesday after the close, with Walmart and Target among the retailers due next week.
Why futures are barely moving after a soft Thursday
Thursday was a mild down day for the big indexes: the S&P 500 fell 0.35%, the Nasdaq 0.39% and the Dow 0.36%. Smaller companies took the brunt, with the Russell 2000 down 1.66%. The Nasdaq is down 6.76% over the past month, while the S&P 500 is down 2.73% over the same stretch but still up 10.91% for the year.
That leaves traders with little fresh to chew on this morning. Futures are close to flat and the VIX, Wall Street's fear gauge, which rises when traders pay more for protection against swings, is at 18.37, down 1.77%.
Beyond the indexes, the picture is mixed. Oil is little changed, gold is edging up and Bitcoin is sliding, which suggests traders are not rushing in any single direction ahead of the weekend.
What the bond market is saying
The 10-year Treasury yield climbed 2.1% on Thursday to 5.103%. Yields rise when bond prices fall, and a higher yield makes it more expensive for companies and households to borrow. The dollar index is steady at 103.224.
Which stocks were moving
Thursday's biggest moves show a split inside tech. Advanced Micro Devices rose 5.86% to $585.30 and Broadcom gained 5.54%. Nvidia fell 4.34% to $166.19 and Strategy dropped 6.49%. Energy was firmer, with ExxonMobil up 2.43% and ConocoPhillips up 1.6%, while Ford fell 2.86% and General Motors 2.98%.

European markets are open and little changed: the FTSE 100 is up 0.1%, the DAX up 0.03% and the CAC 40 down 0.03%.
