Geopolitical tensions rise as Iran-linked attack results in U.S. military casualties ahead of key earnings and AI event.
Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq futures are poised to open Sunday evening following an Iran-linked attack that killed two U.S. service members. The incident adds geopolitical risk to markets already navigating a week of major earnings reports and an AMD AI event.
Last week, U.S. equities closed lower, with losses concentrated in specific sectors. This week, Alphabet, Tesla, Intel, GE Vernova, and Interactive Brokers are among the companies reporting earnings, while AMD’s AI event could influence tech sentiment.
Market participants will weigh the impact of escalating Middle East tensions against corporate earnings and macroeconomic data.
