5 Things to Know Before the Stock Market Opens on Tuesday

U.S. stock futures are rebounding after three straight days of losses, helped by a strong move in semiconductor and memory names as the AI trade remains volatile. Nvidia’s disclosed 9.3% stake in Nebius is boosting sentiment around AI infrastructure, while the broader market also digests a busy earnings slate ahead of major reports from Alphabet, Tesla and IBM. The article also notes mixed premarket moves across large-cap stocks, with 3M rising on better-than-expected results and raised guidance, while several industrial, defense, healthcare and auto names fell. Macro tailwinds include higher crude oil, firmer gold, and a steady but elevated 10-year Treasury yield. Overall, the piece points to a tentative risk-on open led by chips, but with investor focus still split between earnings and AI-related positioning.
