S&P 500 Futures Drop 1.1% as Tech Weakness Deepens, US-Iran Strikes Add Pressure

3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jun 10

Summary

  • S&P 500 futures fell 1.1% by 7:45 a.m. in New York, extending a selloff that had already intensified through the morning.
  • Technology weakness remained the main drag after earlier sharp swings in chipmakers pushed Nasdaq 100 futures lower and kept pressure on broader US equities.
  • Overnight US-Iran strikes added a fresh risk-off catalyst, compounding investor caution that had already built ahead of closely watched US inflation data.
  • Earlier on June 10, S&P 500 futures were down 0.4% and then 0.9%, showing how geopolitical tension and the tech retreat steadily worsened sentiment before the open.
