Stock futures rose Wednesday, boosted by sharp gains in CoreWeave and a rebound in Nvidia following back-to-back losing sessions for the chipmaker.
Nasdaq-100 futures advanced 1.9%, while S&P 500 futures climbed 0.9%. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures gained 76 points, or 0.2%.
Neocloud stock CoreWeave rallied 13% after the company reported third-quarter revenue that beat analyst expectations. CoreWeave also lifted its operating income and revenue guidance for 2026.
CoreWeave’s results helped drive South Korea’s Kospi index 2.6% higher by close, with SK Hynix rising 5.36% and Samsung Electronics adding 3.57%. Elsewhere in Asia, Japan’s Nikkei 225 traded 0.85% higher on Wednesday. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 added 0.23%. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index was down 0.66%, while the CSI 300 fell 0.39%.
Meanwhile, European tech names moved higher. Infineon advanced 6.3%, while ASMI was up 5.5%, ST Microelectronics gained 4%, and ASML rose about 3%. The pan-European Stoxx 600 was last seen 0.29% higher, with Germany’s DAX rising 0.73%. The French CAC 40 added 0.39%, and the U.K. FTSE 100 gained 0.27%
Nvidia, meanwhile, jumped 5%, after the stock dropped nearly 10% to begin the week following CEO Jensen Huang confirming he had an affair with an alleged Chinese spy. The pullback in Nvidia weighed on the broader market Tuesday, with the major averages ending the session lower.
Equities also fell on Tuesday after the latest U.S. inflation data solidified expectations for a December Federal Reserve rate hike. The consumer price index increased by 0.4% month over month in October, topping expectations.
Expectations for a quarter-point rate increase next month rose to about 90% following the release, per the CME Group’s FedWatch tool.
“Despite some technical uncertainty, higher than desired levels of inflation should keep the Fed in a stance of dissatisfaction with the degree of progress on inflation remaining lackluster, so hiking the Fed Funds policy rate in December is our and the market’s base case,” wrote Rick Rieder, CIO of global fixed income at BlackRock. “The question now is more of one of the extent of the hike.”
Comments from Fed Governor Christopher Waller also led traders to price in greater chances of a quarter-point move.
The U.S. bond market will be closed on Wednesday for Veterans Day.
