Futures this morning index futures this morning reflect

Index futures this morning reflect investor indecision. Dow +0.08%, S&P flat, Nasdaq -0.19%. Economic calendar features housing starts data, which could influence interest rate outlooks. Market tone remains data-dependent. Forbes reported Lopez's net worth to be $150 million in 2020, and Affleck's has been estimated to be $150 million as well, although it's not confirmed. In a special question this week, more than half of those surveyed (55.6%) by AAII said they didn't own gold or other precious metals directly or through an exchange-trade fund. Fewer than one in five (18.7%) said they did, while roughly 16% said they owned both precious metals and mining companies, nearly 8% said they only own miners only and not the metals, and less than 2% said they were considering adding gold to their portfolios. Futures this morning are little changed: Dow +0.06%, S&P flat, Nasdaq -0.15%. European banking stocks’ gains are helping global sentiment. Precious metals tick higher as traders hedge against inflation risks.
