- S&P 500 futures held flat pre-market while Nasdaq futures sank, with oil prices gaining, as traders positioned ahead of upcoming inflation (PPI) data per CNBC and Bloomberg headlines.
- The Dow and S&P 500 looked to snap a three-day losing streak; Oracle was set to release AI-signaling results flagged by Bloomberg as a separate catalyst from the inflation-data focus.
Why it matters: The Nasdaq-versus-S&P divergence shows where pre-market stress is concentrated, and Oracle's AI-signaling earnings add a tech-specific catalyst beyond the PPI inflation print that all three outlets frame as the day's main event. Whether the three-day losing streak breaks depends on how both land.
