Stock futures are little changed after sluggish start to October: Live updates
Published On Oct 6, 2024, 6:03 PM
Stock futures are showing little change as Wall Street attempts to maintain the momentum from last Friday's rally. The major stock indices had minor weekly gains, aided by a robust jobs report that supports the possibility of a 'soft landing' for the U.S. economy. Key economic releases are expected this week, including Federal Reserve meeting minutes and the consumer price index report. Investors are also monitoring geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, as well as the upcoming earnings reports from major companies.
