Stock Futures Rise Modestly After Tech-Led Slump\nStock futures rose modestly Friday, a day after the Nasdaq slumped more than 3% as inflation worries sent Treasury yields soaring to their highest levels in 14 months.\nContracts linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 61 points, S&P 500 futures were up 14 points and futures on the tech-heavy Nasdaq gained 108 points.\nThe yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 1.687% early Friday after a spike drove it to 1.75% for the first time since January 2020.\nOil prices edged higher following a plunge of about 8% on concerns new restrictions in Europe would hamper demand.\nStocks in China declined Friday as high-level talks between the U.S. and China, the first since President Joe Biden took office, got off to a rocky start.\nThe Federal Reserve's continued support for the U.S. economy has increased expectations for higher inflation this year. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, however, said the central bank believes an inflation bump would be temporary given the COVID disruption to the labor market.\nThe selloff in stocks and the rapid rise in bond yields “caught some investors wrong-footed” after the Fed pledged to keep interest rates near zero through 2023, said Stephen Innes, chief global strategist at Axi.\nThe Dow dropped 0.46% on Thursday, the S&P 500 declined 1.48% andthe Nasdaq slumped 3.02% as tech stocks were hit particularly hard. Apple (AAPL) -Get Report, for instance, declined 3.39% on Thursday. The stocks was rebounding with a gain just under 1% in premarket trading Friday.\n2. Amazon Wins Rights to Thursday Night NFL Games\nAmazon.com (AMZN) -Get Report won the right to carry Thursday night National Football League games, a first for a streaming company.\nThe league described the deal, which begins in 2023 and runs for 10 years, as its “first-ever all-digital package.”\nAmazon.com's Prime Video acquired exclusive rights to “Thursday Night Football” across hundreds of compatible digital devices.

Nike Falls as Supply-Chain Problems Hit Sales\nNike (NKE) -Get Report was declining in premarket trading after the sports-apparel giant's fiscalthird-quarter sales missed Wall Street estimatesas supply-chain problems delayed shipments to customers in North America.\nThe company reported quarterly sales of $10.36 billion, below analysts’ projections of about $11.02 billion.\nNike said revenue was hurt by disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Particularly affected was North America, where revenue declined 11%, driven by global container shortages and U.S. port congestion.\nThat congestion delayed the flow of inventory in the quarter by more than three weeks, hurting the timing of wholesale shipments, Nike said.\nNike’s earnings managed to top estimates despite the supply issues.\n\"Bottom line, we never like to see a revenue miss, however, we believe the cause behind it to be both reasonable and more importantly, something that will be made up in the current quarter as it is a supply bottleneck issue that will be cleared up and not a demand issue, which would certainly be cause for concern,\" said Jim Cramer and the Action Alerts PLUSteam,which holds Nike in its portfolio.\n4.

Lordstown Motors - What Jim Cramer Thinks\nLordstown Motors (RIDE) -Get Report was clawing back some losses from Thursday, when the stock dropped more than 13% after revealing it was being probed by the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding a highly critical report on the company by short-seller Hindenburg Research.\nOn \"Mad Money\" Thursday evening, TheStreet's Jim Cramer said he learned an important lesson about curbing your enthusiasm.
