Nasdaq-100 futures neared record highs on strong tech earnings.

Nasdaq-100 futures and S&P 500 futures demonstrated significant strength, tracking toward new record closing highs as positive tech earnings fueled market momentum. Strong overnight results, notably a 20% upside breakout from Intel, propelled the broader semiconductor sector and highlighted ongoing capital expenditures in AI capability. While Russell 2000 futures also advanced near all-time highs, market dispersion remained evident, with Dow futures trading flat to slightly lower as capital rotated heavily into technology names.
