Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures trade mixed as Wall Street weighs Google, Tesla earnings
US stock futures traded mixed on Thursday, as hopes for a US-EU trade deal kept fresh records in sight and Wall Street assessed earnings from tech giants Alphabet (GOOG) and Tesla (TSLA). Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (YM=F) dropped 0.4% amid a post-earnings slide in IBM (IBM), after the blue-chip index ended just shy of its first record close this year. Meanwhile, contracts on the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) rose roughly 0.3%, while S&P 500 futures (ES=F) were little changed on the heels of another all-time closing high. Alphabet beat Wall Street's second-quarter earnings expectations and doubled down on its AI spending spree. The Google parent's shares rose in premarket trading alongside other AI-linked stocks such as Nvidia (NVDA), helping buoy the tech-focused gauges.

Earnings season continues on Thursday with results from Intel (INTC) and American Airlines (AAL). Meanwhile, trade-deal hopes continued to run high after the US-Japan pact helped fuel more records for the S&P 500 (^GSPC) and Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) on Wednesday. The EU and US are closing in on an agreement that would impose a 15% tariff for most imports from Europe, instead of the 30% threatened, media reports said. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs That rate is emerging as a potential new baseline for the "reciprocal" tariffs set to kick in on Aug. 1, going by Trump's comments late Wednesday. Previously, the president had imposed a 10% baseline rate on countries as part of his sweeping April tariffs. "We'll have a straight, simple tariff of anywhere between 15% and 50%,' he said at an AI summit. 'A couple of — we have 50 because we haven't been getting along with those countries too well.'

Trending tickers: Chipotle Mexican Grill, T-mobile and Wolfspeed Here are some top stocks trending on Yahoo Finance in premarket trading: Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) stock fell 10% before the bell on Thursday after reporting another quarter of negative sales growth. The fast-casual restaurant chain posted results on Wednesday as it navigates an uncertain consumer environment and as its new leadership deals with the most challenging backdrop in years. T-mobile (TMUS) stock rose 5% premarket on Thursday after beating analyst estimates on Wednesday. The telecom group's CEO Mike Sievert told Yahoo Finance's executive editor Brian Sozzi that the company's steady value messaging is helping it to gain market share. Wolfspeed (WOLF) shares rose 18% before the bell. The chipmaker's stock reacted positively this week to the new US-Japan trade deal and has been up 13% over the last five days. The US-Japan trade deal boosts optimism for Wolfspeed as it supports Renesas' EV chip production, raising hopes for more deals with automakers like Jaguar Land Rover. American Eagle stock soars after-hours in latest meme push Stock in retail giant American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (AEO) flew up over 25% in after-hours trades overnight Thursday. The individual share price went from $10.82 at close to a peak of $13.80 as of 10:57 p.m. EDT. The jump in value can be attributed to the current meme stock phase that has pushed up value in companies such as Opendoor (OPEN), Krispy Kreme (DNUT), Kohl's (KSS), and GoPro (GPRO) over the past few days. Much of meme-stock mania can be attributed to retail investors making moves in stocks with 'undervalued fundamentals', and the rallying of groups around individual personalities. With this in mind, the release of an ad campaign starring actress Sydney Sweeney has been leapt upon by members of online communities on Reddit and X. Though seen in other companies receiving the benefits of online attention, with Opendoor receiving a 140% increase in retail revenue in the past two weeks, it is unclear whether the increase in stock value will see a corresponding increase in revenue for American Eagle. Oil prices rise on trade deal positivity, stockpile reduction Crude oil prices climbed late night Thursday, fueled by hopes for progress in US trade talks and a surprise plunge in American oil stockpiles, easing concerns about global economic slowdown.

Analyst Explains Why He's Bullish on Microsoft (MSFT) Amid ‘AI Eating Software' Trend
Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) is one of the . Ben Reitzes, Melius Research managing director, said in a recent program on CNBC that SaaS companies are under threat amid the rise of AI agents. He named Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) among the companies set to thrive under the AI revolution. 'We just put out a piece raising our targets again on Microsoft and Oracle, and you might be like, 'Oh, that's great news, Ben.' Well, I mean, obviously we've been saying it for a long time, but their revenues are accelerating while all the SaaS guys are decelerating. This is not that hard. You know, I was there when hardware stocks went to eight times earnings because the cloud ate their lunch. It can always software. It can always get worse. This is a complete reversal of Andreessen and 'software eating the world,' and AI is eating software.' Photo by Kaleidico on Unsplash Wedgewood Partners stated the following regarding Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) in its second quarter 2025 investor letter: 'Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) was also a top contributor to portfolio performance during the quarter. The Company showed continued terrific organic revenue growth of +15% and +19% growth in operating income (foreign exchange-neutral, respectively), helped by continued seat growth in Office365. It also showed a key acceleration in its Azure cloud infrastructure business, driven by demand for AI-compute capacity. We added to our position before the strong rally, given that valuations had contracted to levels that were starting to discount away upside from Microsoft's solid positioning in AI.' While we acknowledge the potential of MSFT as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
