Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures rise as stocks set to end June with a bang
US stock futures edged higher Sunday evening, setting up the major indexes for more records to end one of the most volatile first halves of a year in recent memory. Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F) rose around 0.5%. Contracts on the S&P 500 (ES=F) gained 0.2%, and Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) futures ticked up 0.3%. Several of Trump's economic agenda items are in focus this week. A July 9 deadline looms before the possible resumption of Trump's unilateral tariffs, which Trump on Sunday said he didn't think he'd "need to" extend. On the trade front, India has extended its Washington visit to finalize a deal. Administration officials last week confirmed a trade framework with China was in place, bolstering investor sentiment despite a late-Friday dip triggered by Trump's abrupt halt to talks with Canada, citing its digital tax policy. Meanwhile, market watchers are closely following Senate negotiations over Trump's proposed $4.5 trillion tax cut bill. The measure, which passed a procedural vote Saturday, could face a tough path in the House. The Congressional Budget Office estimates it would add $3.3 trillion to the deficit over a decade. For the market, June's gains have been substantial, fueled by optimism surrounding global trade and easing fears over tariffs. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) is up over 4%, the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) has surged over 5.5%, and the Dow (^DJI) has climbed 3.5%. On Friday, all three major indexes closed higher, with the S&P and Nasdaq reaching new record highs for the first time since February — the start of the year's tariff-fueled stock swings. All three major indexes are up at least 3% so far this year. Looking ahead, investors will monitor key Chinese PMI data due Monday to gauge how the ongoing trade war is affecting Asia's largest economy. Despite lingering uncertainties, the broader market remains upbeat heading into the new quarter and second half.

Is Tesla Stock a Millionaire Maker?
In the past 15 years, this top EV stock has climbed more than 20,000%. Tesla shares have always sold for a premium, which is detached from the reality of the current business. Investors considering buying the stock must believe the company will make good on its plans for autonomous driving and robotics. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Looking back at its history as a public company, Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has generated serious wealth for investors. The auto industry disruptor has seen its shares skyrocket 20,290% since its initial public offering in June 2010 (as of June 25). Had you invested just $5,000 back then, there would be a $1 million balance in your portfolio right now. No one would argue with that kind of impressive past gain. But will the leading EV stock be a millionaire maker in the future? Tesla might be the most closely watched business in the world, partly, because of how it disrupted the global car market. Investors also keep tabs on what CEO Elon Musk is doing, as well as his plans for the company (more on this below). However, investors shouldn't lose sight of what Tesla really is today, which is a challenged company that sells innovative and tech-enhanced EVs. In the first quarter, the business reported $14 billion of automotive revenue, 72% of the total. Total revenue was up just 0.9% in 2024, then it declined 9.2% in Q1 2025. Operating income in the first quarter tanked 66%, thanks to lower average selling prices, fewer deliveries, and higher expenses. To be fair, this is an extremely inventive company that's working at the cutting edge of exciting technologies. But someone viewing Tesla with a clear lens would see that this is a struggling business. Its core operations are under pressure, without a doubt. What valuation should Tesla trade at knowing the reality of the business today? Even with a more reasonable price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 50 (compared to its current P/E ratio of 179), which is what luxury automaker Ferrari trades for, the stock has 72% downside. That certainly doesn't give investors any reason to be bullish. Based on the current market cap of $1 trillion and P/E ratio of 179, Tesla is wildly overvalued. But the story stock has seemingly always traded at a steep valuation, as investors continue to bet on a future that sees the company realizing its potential as a dominant force in autonomous driving and robotics. The company has finally launched a robotaxi service in Austin, Texas. This was highly anticipated and something that Musk has talked about for years. However, I think it turned out to be a big nothing burger. There were no Cybercabs. Less than two dozen Model Ys were used instead. There were human supervisors in all the vehicles. And videos of the robotaxis in action showed numerous issues, spurring an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. At the same time, Alphabet's Waymo is handling 250,000 trips per week in multiple cities. And an application is in place to start testing the service in New York City. Tesla appears to still have a long way to go. The company is also leveraging its AI capabilities to work on Optimus, a humanoid robot. Musk believes it will produce 1 million units annually by the end of this decade. Besides placing these machines in its factories, the goal is to sell them to other companies. If all goes according to plan, which is a very uncertain outcome, then Tesla could make its investors into millionaires down the road. The end markets for robotaxis and humanoid robots are estimated to be measured in the trillions of dollars. The company's ability to not only have these technologies achieve mass adoption, but to also capture a sizable chunk of the opportunity, could create a financial windfall. However, I think there's also a good chance that the business won't deliver up to its heightened expectations, a perspective that's supported by a history of constant delays. This is a stock that I'm still avoiding. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $409,114!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $38,173!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $713,547!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join , and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.*Stock Advisor returns as of June 23, 2025 Suzanne Frey, an executive at Alphabet, is a member of The Motley Fool's board of directors.
