Futures signal a weaker open for major indices as tech stocks retreat, with Nvidia leading declines after reports of potential hurdles in its $100 billion OpenAI investment plan. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures dropped 0.5% and 0.8% respectively, reflecting renewed skepticism around AI capital allocation.

Disney outperformed expectations in its earnings report, though investor focus remains divided between fundamentals and speculation about impending leadership changes. Palantir's upcoming results will test market appetite for pure-play AI equities.

Oracle's planned $50 billion fundraising for AI infrastructure underscores the sector's capital intensity. Meanwhile, crude oil tumbled 4% to $62.25/barrel as geopolitical tensions showed signs of easing.
