Toplines Before US Market Open on Friday

Tiger Newspress2021-06-11

  • S&P 500 looks to add to Thursday's record close.
  • Meme stocks get some relief after hitting a wall.
  • Blockchain stocks rally in premarket trading.
  • Airline stocks rally in premarket trading.
  • EV stocks rally in premarket trading.

(June 11) U.S. stock futures traded slightly higher in early pre-market trade after the S&P 500 index jumped to a new high in the previous session following data on consumer price inflation and jobless claims. Investors are awaiting earnings results from Cheetah Mobile and Azure Power Global.

The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index for June is scheduled for release at 10:00 a.m. ET. The consumer sentiment index dropped over 5 points to 82.9 in May due to rising inflation expectations. Analysts, however, expect June's preliminary reading to rise slightly to 84.

At 7:58 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 73 points, or 0.21%, S&P 500 e-minis were up 6.5 points, or 0.15%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 28 points, or 0.20%.

Meme stocks were getting some relief early Friday after hitting a wall Thursday. Shares of GameStop, which tanked 27% on Thursday, rose 6% in the premarket. GameStop investors seemed to be running for the exits Thursday, one day after the video game retailer announced the appointments of two former Amazon executives as CEO and CFO and said it may sell as many as 5 million additional shares to raise money. GameStop — off about 50% from its $483 per share all-time high in January — remained up nearly 1,100% in 2021. Last week's big winner, AMC Entertainment, rose 4% in Friday's premarket after closing down 13% on Thursday. The stock — down more than 40% from last week's all-time high of $72.62 — was still up 1,900% this year.
