About this listen
US equity futures are pointing modestly higher, with Asian markets firmer and European equities advancing. There was little change in the overarching narrative. Big tech was mixed, software resumed its pullback after a brief stabilization, and financials rebounded following recent weakness. The yield curve continued to flatten with a bearish tilt, while a firmer dollar weighed on precious metals. Corporate updates were largely underwhelming, though M&A and activist activity picked up. Fed commentary remained cautious, with officials signaling openness to rate cuts later this year but emphasizing the need for clearer evidence that inflation is returning to target.
