- Stock futures rose at the start of the week as tech shares gained and oil prices dropped.
- Dow futures, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures rose ahead of a busy week of big-tech earnings and the Fed rate decision, the shared forward-looking setup highlighted by Bloomberg and Yahoo.
Why it matters: Traders' immediate payoff was a three-index rise with tech strength and lower oil, but the week's stated focus was big-tech earnings and the Fed rate decision. Their convergence concentrates attention on company results and monetary policy rather than the opening move alone.
