US Futures Steady After Yield-Driven Wall Street Slide

U.S. stock futures edged higher or hovered near flat Tuesday after a broad selloff. The 10-year Treasury yield stayed above 5.2% and near its highest level since 2007, with the 30-year yield near 5.5%. Oil was near $105 a barrel. AMD agreed to buy AI startup World Labs for $8.2 billion. Anthropic IPO paperwork showed rapid growth but widening losses and a valuation target above $2 trillion. Investors weighed elevated yields and uncertainty over inflation and the Federal Reserve's next moves. Traders awaited consumer-confidence and job-openings data. Geopolitical tensions and elevated oil prices remained in focus, though crude showed mixed moves. CONTESTED: Bloomberg presented futures as rising while traders awaited key economic data; Newsmax presented futures as ticking higher as tech stocks found footing. Rated outlets did not disagree on the yield levels, oil price, AMD purchase terms, or Anthropic valuation target. Upcoming data and the Fed path remain unresolved.
