U.S. stock futures were little changed on Tuesday night, after the S&P 500 capped a seven-day win streak because of a drop in Oracle that called to question the sustainability of the artificial intelligence trade. The government shutdown is also in its second week.<\/p>\n
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures rose by 27 points, or 0.06%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.08% and 0.11%, respectively.<\/p>\n
Wall Street is coming off a losing session for the major averages. The Dow Jones Industrial Average<\/a> fell 91.99 points, or 0.2%. The broad market index pulled back 0.4%, while the Nasdaq Composite<\/a> slid 0.7%.<\/p>\n Those moves came after The Information reported Oracle’s margins from its cloud business are weaker than analysts are currently forecasting, and that the enterprise software company is losing money on some of its deals to rent out Nvidia’s chips. Oracle shares lost 2.5%<\/a> as a result.<\/p>\n The report added to fears that the stock market is currently caught up in an AI bubble that harkens back to the late 1990s, when a feeding frenzy on early internet companies eventually led to the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Many market observers are urging investors to rebalance their portfolios, while also acknowledging there could be further upside before the AI rally exhausts itself.<\/p>\n
