Good Morning, Traders!…👋
Stock futures were flat early Wednesday as Wall Street watches to see if equities can rebound to record highs this week. Earnings reports have been mixed, with strong results from major banks offset by weaker outlooks from companies like UnitedHealth Group and Dutch chipmaker ASML.
Morgan Stanley and Abbott Laboratories are set to report earnings before the market opens, drawing attention as key indicators of market momentum.
ASML extended its losses after cutting sales guidance, while Nvidia saw slight gains. United Airlines beat analysts' expectations with its third-quarter adjusted earnings. Morgan Stanley's earnings report is also in focus.
Meanwhile, gold futures rose 0.5%, trading at $2,691.90 per ounce, approaching the all-time high of $2,708.70/oz set in late September.
