U.S. stock futures are moving higher as investors balance earnings season momentum with ongoing geopolitical risks.
$SPY
$QQQ
$DIA
$VIXY
The market is watching two major drivers right now:
Earnings reports are coming in, and investors are looking for confirmation that corporate profits can support current valuations.
At the same time, traders continue monitoring the Iran conflict and broader geopolitical developments, which could impact volatility.
Futures remain firm, but the next major move will likely depend on earnings reactions, market breadth, and how price responds at key levels. Stay focused on the data, not the headlines.
