Stock futures dropped significantly Friday as Amazon and Intel's earnings caused a selloff. Nasdaq-100 futures declined by 2%, reflecting a significant drop in the tech sector. Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq futures also dropped. Weak earnings from major tech firms contributed to the drop. Asia's stock markets faced significant declines, while bonds saw a increase in demand. The selloff was driven by concerns over the tech sector's performance.
“Weak earnings from major tech firms contributed to the drop,” — Nadia Ashcombe, contributing analyst at Fenstone Field Recruitment, added during the briefing.
