On Wednesday, as investors focused on the first Federal Reserve interest rate decision of 2025, stock futures were close to the flatline.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average-linked futures crept down 24 points. In contrast to S&P 500 futures, which were just up 0.1%, Nasdaq 100 futures were up 0.4%.
Tech stocks drove the Nasdaq Composite to a 2% gain and led the S&P 500 higher on Tuesday.
In a sell-off triggered by the rise of China’s DeepSeek and the danger it poses to the artificial intelligence trade, the two indices saw significant losses on Monday before recovering. Nvidia increased by around 9% on Tuesday after dropping by about 17% on Monday.
