U.S. stock futures rise ahead of the open, driven by strong GM earnings and gains in semiconductor stocks like Marvell and Micron.
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures climbed 0.2% early Tuesday, while S&P 500 futures advanced 0.5%, as investors reacted to corporate earnings reports. General Motors (GM) led gains following its latest earnings release, contributing to the broader market uptick.
Memory-chip stocks, including Marvell Technology (MRVL), Micron Technology (MU), and Sandisk (SNDK), surged in premarket trading. The rally in semiconductor shares follows recent volatility in the sector, with AI-related demand supporting sentiment.
Futures movements suggest cautious optimism ahead of the market open, though trading volumes remain light in early sessions.
