U.S. stock futures were little changed on Tuesday night as traders looked ahead to the release of Nvidia<\/a>‘s first-quarter earnings report.<\/p>\n S&P 500 futures<\/a> slipped 0.1%, while Nasdaq 100 futures<\/a> declined 0.1%. Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average<\/a> lost 34 points.<\/p>\n Rising bond yields pressured stocks on Tuesday, causing the S&P 500<\/a> and Nasdaq Composite<\/a> to both post their third losing sessions in a row. The broad market index fell 0.67%, while the technology-heavy Nasdaq shed 0.84%. The blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average<\/a> lost 322.24 points, or 0.65%.<\/p>\n On Tuesday, the 30-year U.S. Treasury yield briefly topped 5.19%<\/a>, marking its highest level in nearly 19 years. The 10-year Treasury<\/a> yield at one point hit 4.687% to reach its highest level since January 2025. Rates have spiked in recent days after a series of economic reports last week revealed that inflation may be reigniting.<\/p>\n Investors are turning their attention toward Nvidia, which reports its first-quarter earnings after Wednesday’s closing bell. The report will be an important view into the artificial intelligence trade and provide the latest update on demand for chips.<\/p>\n Ben Snider, chief U.S. equity strategist at Goldman Sachs, noted that the chipmaker and AI darling has contributed about 20% of the S&P 500’s returns this year and almost that much of the broad market index’s earnings growth in 2026.<\/p>\n “So, the numbers they report tomorrow matter. More broadly, of course, investors across the Street \u2014 and really across asset classes \u2014 look to Nvidia as a signal for where the AI infrastructure buildout is going, and we’ll be watching closely,” Snider said on CNBC’s “Closing Bell<\/a>” on Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n Traders are also expecting the minutes from the Federal Reserve’s April meeting, which are due on Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n Lowe’s<\/a>, Target<\/a>, Hasbro<\/a>, V.F. Corporation<\/a>, Analog Devices<\/a> and TJX<\/a> will report their earnings before Wednesday’s opening bell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York on May 19,…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":808521,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[6],"tags":[92325,133,64,81,91320,144,51289,250818,6796,135,91322,143,147,91321,145,134,16285,29265,8111,20674,67,132,68,262295],"class_list":["post-808520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-analog-devices-inc","tag-breaking-news-markets","tag-business","tag-business-news","tag-dow-jones-fut-sep25","tag-dow-jones-industrial-average","tag-hasbro-inc","tag-invesco-qqq-trust","tag-lowes-companies-inc","tag-markets","tag-nasdaq-100-fut-sep25","tag-nasdaq-composite","tag-nvidia-corp","tag-sp-500-fut-sep25","tag-sp-500-index","tag-stock-markets","tag-suppress-zephr","tag-target-corp","tag-tjx-companies-inc","tag-u-s-10-year-treasury","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us","tag-vf-corp"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116603781331887101","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=808520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/808520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/808521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=808520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=808520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=808520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
