Pre-Market Catalyst Update 🌎 MARKET OVERVIEW U.S. futures are slightly positive this morning as Treasury yields ease ahead of a major inflation test. At approximately 5:27 AM ET, Dow futures were +0.18%, S&P 500 futures +0.10%, and Nasdaq-100 futures -0.01%. NVDA, GOOGL and AAPL were modestly higher, while AMD and MRVL were slightly lower. The market is finishing a volatile September with AI strength still competing against elevated rates, oil and inflation concerns.

PCE INFLATION IS TODAY’S MAIN MACRO EVENT August PCE inflation is the biggest scheduled catalyst. Economists surveyed by Reuters expect annual inflation around 3.7%. Traders are now nearly evenly divided on whether the Federal Reserve will raise rates again in October, a major change from roughly 70% odds of another hike just one week ago. Source: https://www.reuters.com/business/us-stock-futures-inch-up-yields-ease-inflation-report-looms-2026-09-30/ 2. TREASURY YIELDS FINALLY EASE The 10-year Treasury yield is easing this morning after reaching its highest level since June 2007 yesterday. September has been extremely difficult for bonds, with inflation, oil prices and government debt concerns driving borrowing costs sharply higher. Even a modest yield retreat is helping stabilize large-cap growth stocks this morning.

MICRON EARNINGS AFTER THE CLOSE MU reports earnings after today's closing bell, providing the next major test of the AI semiconductor trade. Analysts expect Micron to report quarterly revenue more than four times the year-earlier level. Memory demand has become an important component of the AI infrastructure story, making MU one of today's most important stocks to watch.
