Stock Market Today: Futures Mixed After Yesterday’s Massive Gains as Investors Await Key Inflation Report Stephen Wisnefski Tue, November 10, 2026 at 8:10 AM EST 3 min read ^DJI -0.26% ^IXIC -0.74% The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 1,100 points to kick off the week as a volatile stretch of trading continued.Credit: Michael Nagle / Bloomberg / Getty Images Futures tied to major stock indexes are mixed this morning after yesterday's big rally, as investors await a report on consumer prices that will factor into the Federal Reserve's thinking on interest rates.
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures were up 0.3% recently, while futures linked to the benchmark S&P 500 hovered near unchanged, and tech-heavy Nasdaq futures slipped 0.4%. Each of the indexes closed more than 2% higher on Monday, led by big gains for chip stocks. Those gains wiped out most of the losses posted last week, when tech stocks tumbled amid concerns that Democratic control in Congress and several key statehouses could jeopardize the AI development that has propelled the market in recent years.
Traders will be focused this morning on the release of the October Consumer Price Index report, which is expected to show that inflation accelerated last month. Economists estimate that consumer prices rose 3.9% in the 12 months through October, up from 3.7% the month before, while "core" inflation, which excludes volatile energy and food prices, is seen coming in at 2.7%. Inflation is running well above the Fed's 2% target, and a number in line with or above economists' expectations will add to expectations that the Fed will raise interest rates in the coming months.
Chip stocks are losing ground this morning. After rising more than 7% yesterday, the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) was down 1% recently, as Intel (INTC) and Marvell Technology (MRVL) both fell about 3%, while Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Micron (MU) and Nvidia (NVDA) each declined more than 1%. Nvidia is adding to losses posted yesterday, when the stock tumbled more than 4% following news that its CEO, Jensen Huang, is being investigated by the company for his relationship with woman alleged to be a spy for China.
Other major tech stocks are mostly higher ahead of the opening bell. Shares of Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Meta Platforms (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) were up slightly, while Tesla (TSLA) slipped 1%.
In other markets, WTI oil futures were down 2% at $85.10 per barrel, adding to yesterday's steep decline and trading at their lowest level since late August, as investors await fresh developments in the Iran war. Gold futures were down 0.7% at $4,085 an ounce, while bitcoin traded at $74,300, down from yesterday's high around $76,000 and at its lowest level in nearly three months. The yield on the 10-year Treasury, which affects interest rates on all sorts of loans, held steady at 4.90%.
