Morning Juice – US Session Prep
Good Morning Traders!
It is Tuesday, the 18th of June. Here is what to look out for today.
Sentiment
US equity futures pointed to further gains on Wall Street this morning, following a rally in large US tech companies that propelled the S&P 500 to another record high.
Contracts on the US benchmark remained steady, while those on the Nasdaq 100 edged higher.
Chipmakers Broadcom, Micron Technology, and Qualcomm were among the biggest gainers in premarket trading after the S&P 500 reached an all-time high for the 30th time this year on Monday, defying concerns about narrow breadth and higher-for-longer interest rates.
