U.S. stock futures showed a mixed performance in early trading on Monday as investors reacted to China’s recent stimulus pledge while preparing for upcoming earnings reports from major Wall Street firms.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped by 41 points, or 0.1%, while S&P 500 futures rose by 0.1%, following record highs set by both indexes on Friday. Meanwhile, contracts linked to the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 increased by 0.1%.
Trading volume across all three indexes remained low due to the partial market closure for Columbus Day. Investors are closely monitoring the developments in China’s economic stimulus measures, which have implications for global markets, as well as the earnings reports from significant companies expected in the coming days.
