U.S. stock futures were little changed Tuesday night, as investors awaited earnings results from Nvidia, after the Dow Jones Industrial Average snapped a four-day losing streak.
Dow futures rose by 49 points, or 0.1%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.07% and 0.03%, respectively.
In extended trading, Okta shares plunged more than 12% after the identity management software company kept its guidance due to macroeconomic uncertainty. Otherwise, Okta beat fiscal first-quarter expectations on the top and bottom lines.
Investors are coming off a strong session for the major averages. The 30-stock Dow rallied more than 700 points, or about 1.8%, while the S&P 500 rose 2%, each ending a four-day losing streak. The Nasdaq Composite advanced roughly 2.5%.
Those moves come after President Donald Trump on Sunday said that he would delay a 50% tariff on the European Union to July 9, after initially saying Friday that he was "not looking for a deal." This added to investors' hopes the stock market can leave the worst of the tariff chaos behind.
"It's important for investors to look past the tariff turmoil and look at the environment where we'll have deregulation, more onshoring. Think about the tax bill, immediate expensing from a tax basis. Greater opportunities for M&A. So, the environment post-tariffs will be a great environment for investing," Treasury Partners' Rich Saperstein said Tuesday on CNBC's "Closing Bell."
"Now, in between that, we have uncertainty, which could cause a slowdown in the next two quarters," said Saperstein, chief investment officer of Treasury Partners. "But I would look to the environment post-tariffs into '26, versus looking in the immediate volatility."
Investors are awaiting Nvidia 's earnings results, set to release Wednesday after the close. They'll be paying close attention to what China restrictions will mean for the AI chipmaker, which sees no slowing in demand for its graphics processors.
Elsewhere, Macy's , Dick's Sporting Goods and Abercrombie & Fitch are set to report before the open on Wednesday.
Traders will also be reviewing the minutes from the Federal Reserve May meeting, due out Wednesday afternoon, for insight into how central bank policymakers are thinking through monetary policy at a time of greater macroeconomic uncertainty.

M&S online shopping service to return in days after cyber attack shut down
Online shopping is set to return to Marks and Spencer (M&S) after being shut down more than a month ago following a cyber attack. M&S was hit by a major cyber attack back in April with hackers gaining access to the company's IT systems through a third party after 'human error'. Customer personal data, which could have included names, email addresses, postal addresses and dates of birth, was also taken by hackers. As a result of the cyber attack, M&S was forced to pause all online and app orders and temporarily lay off staff at its Castle Donington clothing and homewares logistics centre.

Treasury yields slip as U.S.-China trade talks enter Day 2
Treasury yields slipped Tuesday as U.S. and Chinese officials resumed trade negotiations in London for the second day. The 10-year Treasury yield was down almost 3 basis points to 4.456% at 3.30 a.m. ET. The 2-year yield slipped around one basis point to 3.993%. The 30-year yield was lower by 3 basis points to 4.921%. One basis point equals 0.01%. Yields and prices move inversely in the bond market. U.S.-China trade negotiations in London resumed on Tuesday, building on a recent call between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping. On Monday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer had talks with Chinese officials. Both sides have intensified diplomatic efforts following weeks of escalating trade tensions and uncertainty sparked by Trump's broad import tariffs on China and other key trading partners in April. "While we await any concrete news, it's worth remembering that markets have been used to a lot of back-and-forth in recent weeks," Deutsche Bank's analysts said, in reference to how U.S. tariffs slapped on China went all the way up to 145%, before being slashed to 30%, among other instances of policy reversals. "There've been several twists and turns already, and markets are getting fairly used to this uncertainty by now," wrote in a note published Tuesday. Deflation in China is also putting pressure on the Chinese government to negotiate a trade deal with Trump that benefits both countries, said Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research. China's consumer prices fell for a fourth consecutive month in May, with the CPI falling 0.1% from a year earlier, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Monday.

'Collateral damage': Fund managers lobby Congress over Section 899 to avert foreign investors leaving the U.S.
American fund managers are lobbying Congress over a provision tucked inside President Donald Trump's tax bill that they say could lead to foreign investors "quickly" pulling investments out of the U.S. The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," which passed through the U.S. House of Representatives in May, aims to penalize foreign-owned firms operating in the U.S. and that are from countries with "unfair foreign taxes" under a provision known as Section 899. It is currently being considered by the Senate. The Investment Company Institute (ICI), which represents fund houses in the U.S., is lobbying Congress for an amendment as it warns the bill in its current form also impacts most foreign investments in U.S. stock markets, according to documents seen by CNBC. "In order to avoid the impact of section 899, portfolio investors are likely to retreat quickly from US equities, leading to capital outflows from the United States," the ICI said in a letter sent to Senator Mike Crapo, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, on June 5. "If sustained selling by foreign investors depresses US equity markets, this would harm both US companies and investors." Section 899 aims to introduce retaliatory tax measures against entities from countries that have levies such as the Digital Services Taxes and the OECD's global minimum tax rules. If signed into law, it could impact investors from the European Union, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and Switzerland, among others. The tax would start at 5% and escalate by five percentage points annually to a maximum of 20%, on top of existing taxes, which vary by country and tax treaties. That could dent returns for foreign investors in U.S. equities. In the letter, the ICI also suggests that the U.S. fund management industry, which has collectively invested around $18 trillion in U.S. stock markets, would be "collateral damage" due to the impact of Section 899. "We do believe, however, that the current drafting of proposed section 899 should clarify its scope and avoid discouraging foreign investment in US equity markets through 'investment funds' such as US mutual funds and ETFs and their foreign counterparts (e.g., UCITS funds)," the ICI said. The letter to Senators goes on to say, "section 899 would penalize these funds and their shareholders by taxing passive income from US equity investments. To this end, investment funds would be collateral damage to the intended focus of section 899." Funds typically charge fees as a percentage of assets under management, and a withdrawal by foreign investors, over Section 899 concerns, could lead to lower earnings for the investment management firm. The Senate Finance Committee declined to comment, and Senator Mike Crapo's office did not respond to CNBC's request for comment. Foreign investors own $19 trillion in the U.S. stock markets, $7 trillion in U.S. government bonds, and $5 trillion in U.S. credit, according to data compiled by Apollo Global Management. The ICI said it's largely in support of the U.S. government's attempt to "protect US business interests overseas and to address discriminatory foreign taxes." However, it cautions that the current draft of the bill does the opposite. "Some foreign governments may actually cheer this capital flight from the United States because it benefits their local equity markets, which is not the behavioral incentive that Section 899 seeks to achieve," it said. Yuri Khodjamirian, chief investment officer for Tema ETFs, said investors in Europe who are focused on dividend-distributing U.S. companies would be "thinking quite carefully" about their holdings at this stage. "If suddenly you have to pay tax on that income, why would you hold that?" Khodjamirian questioned. Tema ETFs runs the American Reshoring ETF that is available to both U.S. and foreign investors. Tax experts suggest earnings paid out to foreign investors are more likely to be hit by Section 899 than capital gains and other methods of shareholder distributions. The Tema ETFs investment chief cautioned that the impact on the U.S. equities market would be relatively minimal as U.S. companies, say in the S&P 500, are typically not known for their dividends. "In the US, dividend yields are quite low. There's not a lot of companies paying. And most of the capital gets returned to share buybacks," Khodjamirian told CNBC. "Is that actually going to be that big of an issue then?"
