Good morning!
US stock futures rose Friday as investors awaited September’s jobs report, which could offer clues on the economy and Federal Reserve policy.
Dow and S&P 500 futures gained 0.3%, while Nasdaq-100 futures advanced 0.8%. Economists expect the US economy to have added 85,000 jobs in September, signaling a return to more moderate hiring.
Markets still largely anticipate at least one 25-basis-point Fed rate hike in December, despite reduced expectations for October.
Meanwhile, Middle East tensions continued to fuel inflation concerns, with the US reportedly deploying an additional aircraft carrier and 10,000 personnel to the Persian Gulf. Brent crude stabilized near $102 a barrel.
