U.S. stock futures are relatively flat in the premarket with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 on three-session win streaks. Despite lower than expected ADP private payrolls and ISM services data on Wednesday, big tech is leading the markets with the S&P 500 less than 3% from its all-time high. Focus today will be on Jobless Claims data along with earnings from Broadcom (AVGO) after the closing bell.

Snapshot (as of 7 AM ET)

  • Oil (/CL) – Oil prices are up 0.1% near $63 a barrel after a build in U.S. gasoline and diesel inventories and Saudi Arabia’s cut to its July prices for Asian crude buyers.
  • Gold (/GC) – Gold is 0.6% near $3420 as investors assessed weaker-than-expected U.S. data and ongoing global economic and political uncertainties, while looking ahead to U.S. payroll data for further economic cues.
  • Bitcoin (/BTC) – The Crypto Future is relatively flat near 105K in the premarket.
  • VIX – The CBOE Volatility Index was down 0.5% on Wednesday and settled at 17.61 as stocks were relatively flat.
  • U.S. Dollar (/DX) – The dollar is also flat at 98.8.
