US equity futures showed modest gains overnight following a broad advance during Monday's regular session. Nvidia dominated retail social chatter following news of an internal executive probe, drawing strong dip-buying interest despite governance uncertainty. Meanwhile, The Trade Desk faced post-earnings pressure following its conference call, with traders eyeing tomorrow's CPI print for broader direction.
US equity futures traded higher overnight following a broad market advance on Monday, supported by retail traders aggressively buying dips in tech leaders. However, investor caution remains elevated ahead of tomorrow morning's key US CPI inflation report. Market sentiment in high-beta tech is fragmented due to emerging corporate governance headlines at Nvidia and sharp post-earnings volatility in ad-tech.
