Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100 futures rise modestly amid geopolitical de-escalation signals before US market open.
US stock futures climbed in early European trading Friday following reports of an extended ceasefire between the US and Iran. Dow Jones futures rose 0.09% to 50,790, while S&P 500 futures gained 0.14%, approaching 7,600. Nasdaq 100 futures advanced 0.13% to near 30,350.
The moves follow a week of heightened geopolitical tensions that had weighed on global markets. Futures had previously dipped on escalation concerns, making the ceasefire extension a relief for investors. No official confirmation of the extension has been released.
Markets remain cautious ahead of the US regular session, with traders monitoring developments for further clarity on the geopolitical front.
