US stock futures were steady on Wednesday as traders evaluated the latest round of corporate results. In extended trading, Netflix slid over 6% after missing Q3 earnings expectations, while Mattel sank more than 5% on weaker-than-expected results. Conversely, Intuitive Surgical and Western Alliance climbed 17.1% and 2.9%, respectively, following strong quarterly performances. During Tuesday’s regular session, the Dow rose 0.47% to a fresh record high, supported by upbeat earnings from major components including Coca Cola and 3M. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 finished flat and the Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.16% as momentum in tech stocks faded. Investors now await Tesla’s earnings on Wednesday for further cues on the sector and look ahead to Friday’s CPI report amid a data blackout from the ongoing US government shutdown.
