8 June 2026, 04:49 USA: Futures Edge Lower After Tech-Led Rout.
US stock futures edged lower on Monday after Wall Street suffered a sharp selloff in the previous session, led by heavy losses in semiconductor and other technology stocks. Investors also weighed geopolitical risks after Iran launched several rounds of missiles toward Israel in a warning against further military actions in Lebanon, adding uncertainty as ceasefire efforts remain fragile and peace talks show little progress. During Friday's regular session, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite plunged 4.18%, marking its worst performance since April 2025, while the S&P 500 and Dow Jones fell 2.64% and 1.35%, respectively. Chipmakers were among the hardest hit, including Micron (-13.3%), Nvidia (-6.2%), Marvel (-16.7%), Advanced Micro Devices (-10.9%) and Sandisk (-11.4%). The downturn was also fueled by a stronger-than-expected May jobs report, which pushed Treasury yields higher and reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve could raise interest rates later this year.
