US stock futures showed little change after declines in major indexes during the previous session. Market sentiment is affected by worries over the sustainability of the AI rally, reminiscent of the dot-com bubble, and the ongoing government shutdown, which is delaying economic data releases and putting pressure on policymakers.
- The Dow lost 0.2% on Tuesday.
- US stock futures were little changed on Wednesday.
- The ongoing government shutdown continues to weigh on sentiment.
The flat futures trading for the Dow Jones suggest a degree of uncertainty among investors. The small loss in the prior session coupled with ongoing worries could indicate a cautious approach in the near term. The combination of AI bubble fears and a governmental impasse creates a challenging environment for the asset.
