Market News:

U.S. stock futures edged higher on Tuesday after the Nasdaq Composite closed at a record high, as a selloff in global bond yields eased and oil prices dipped on hopes for renewed Gulf supply flows

By 05:22 ET (09:22 GMT), the Dow futures contract rose by 263 points, or 0.5%, S&P 500 futures gained 19 points, or 0.3%, and Nasdaq 100 futures jumped by 91 points, or 0.3%.

The main averages on Wall Street rose on Monday, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite buoyed by ongoing enthusiasm around artificial intelligence. The gains extended a rally that began after an employment report on Friday found that U.S. job growth was softer than expected in September, prompting investors to sharply scale back wagers on a rate increase at the Federal Reserve’s October meeting.

A decline in oil prices has helped to marginally soothe some concerns around persistent energy-driven inflation as well, further boosting bets that the Fed will skip a rate increase this month before raising borrowing costs in December.

Crude prices dropped after shipping data from Kpler showed that Gulf oil exporters managed to surpass pre-war levels for roughly half of September, bolstering a supply picture that has improved since the Group of Seven countries pledged last week to release emergency energy reserves.

Still, a fresh set of services sector activity data showed that the prices paid by these companies in September touched a post-2022 high, keeping inflation worries in play. With the Fed tipped to remain focused on corralling price gains, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield hit its highest level in more than two decades on Monday -- although the benchmark yield has since retreated.

Investors were also assessing fears that U.S. bond-market woes may be spreading globally, particularly to France. However, strategists at Deutsche Bank said that there were "initial signs that the pressure on France was stabilizing, with a clear outperformance in French debt."

Analysts at Vital Knowledge added that an "aggressive" fiscal consolidation plan laid out by Marine Le Pen, who currently leads polling ahead of next year’s French presidential election, is contributing to a "relief rally" in Eurozone sovereign bonds.

On the earnings front, Constellation Brands, whose brands include beers like Corona and Modelo Especial, is due to report after the closing bell. Investors will likely be curious to see how alcohol sales have evolved during a time when shoppers have been grappling with elevated inflation.

The latest quarterly reporting season is set to begin in earnest next week, when a clutch of major Wall Street lenders are slated to unveil returns.
