Market News:
U.S. Premarket Movers –
Tuesday, August 4, 2026
U.S. stock futures are trading
mixed Tuesday morning as investors await the June JOLTS
Job Openings report, Factory
Orders, and a busy slate of corporate
earnings led by AMD, Caterpillar, Pfizer, Merck, McDonald's, and Arista Networks.
Markets are also monitoring Treasury yields and expectations for the Federal
Reserve's next policy move following recent economic data.
Here are
some of the key premarket movers:
Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT)
gained after reporting better-than-expected earnings and revenue, supported by resilient demand across its
construction and mining businesses.
Marathon Petroleum (NYSE: MPC) advanced
after delivering a strong earnings and revenue beat,
helped by solid refining margins.
Pfizer (NYSE: PFE)
edged higher after posting better-than-expected quarterly earnings and revenue.
Merck & Co. (NYSE: MRK) rose
after beating
analyst expectations on both earnings
and revenue.
McDonald's (NYSE: MCD)
traded lower despite a slight earnings beat, as revenue missed Wall Street
estimates.
Cummins (NYSE: CMI)
slipped after missing
EPS expectations, although revenue came
in above forecasts.
W.W. Grainger (NYSE: GWW)
moved higher following better-than-expected earnings and revenue.
Ametek (NYSE: AME)
gained after reporting strong quarterly results that exceeded analyst estimates.
AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) was
active ahead of its after-market earnings release,
with investors focused on AI chip demand and data center
growth.
Arista Networks (NYSE: ANET) was
in focus ahead of earnings, with expectations for continued strength in AI
networking infrastructure.
Booking Holdings (NASDAQ: BKNG) and Amgen (NASDAQ: AMGN) were
also closely watched ahead of their earnings announcements after the closing
bell.
