Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Nasdaq futures are up, driven by Micron Technology's positive earnings, hinting at a potential Santa Claus rally. U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday due to profit-taking after a period of gains. Economic data releases, including jobless claims and GDP reports, may influence trading. Analysts are divided, with Tom Lee optimistic about market momentum and John Lynch cautious, expecting limited equity market growth. Premarket trading saw SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ ETF rise.
