U.S. Stock Futures Lower, Tech Under Pressure

U.S. stock futures are lower in premarket trading with tech under pressure after Intel (INTC) and Amazon (AMZN) earnings.
The moves come after losses on Thursday led by a 12% slide in Alphabet (GOOGL) shares on weak earnings. Amazon (AMZN) shares are down 6% ahead of the open after the company reported earnings and revenue for the third quarter that fell short of Wall Street’s expectations. Intel (INTC) shares are sliding 25% after issuing a weak outlook for the current quarter and a slowdown in PCs sales into 2027.
Today marks the end of a volatile October for markets led by losses in the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 (NDX). With little economic data, investors will focus on earnings fallout today.
