According to CNN Dow futures updates, futures gained 0.12% in early sessions, reflecting investor confidence amid stable Treasury yields. The 10-year yield hovering around 4.28% is helping Dow-linked stocks maintain upward momentum. “Unfortunately, the market is no longer focused on the jobs market and focused squarely on tariffs and trade wars as the US plays chicken with the rest of the world, potentially beginning a downward spiral into a worldwide recession,” said Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer at Northlight Asset Management. CNN Dow futures gained 27 points in early trade as market players interpreted strong semiconductor demand as a long-term bullish indicator for Dow sectors. With CNN Dow futures up 44 points, market watchers point to strong sector breadth in pre-market activity. Industrials are once again leading, signaling possible momentum carry-through.
