The Breakfast Briefing: Dow Futures Rise As Investors Await A Flurry Of Earnings

FYI: Global stocks showed tentative signs of stabilizing Tuesday following another turbulent session on Wall Street triggered by a further slide in technology shares.

U.S. futures pointed to a small opening gain for the S&P 500 after the index shed 0.7% Monday, teetering on the brink of correction territory, having tumbled 9.9% from its recent peak.

The Stoxx Europe 600 was down 0.1% recently. The pan-European index missed the late-reversal in U.S. stocks Monday, notching a rise of 0.9% to start the week. Most markets in the Asia-Pacific region were higher, led by Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average.

Stocks markets have whipsawed in recent weeks as investors have focused on corporate earnings and the health of the global economy. The S&P 500 is on track for its worst month since February 2009, when U.S. markets were still reeling from the global financial crisis.

Ted
