BTCCSquare news:
US stock futures inched upward as Wall Street digested President Trump's nomination of Stephen Miran to the Federal Reserve Board and the implementation of new tariffs. Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq futures each ROSE 0.2%, reflecting cautious optimism.
Corporate earnings painted a mixed picture—Pinterest stumbled after missing profit expectations, while Block surged on strong guidance. Market sentiment remained fragile as traders assessed the Ripple effects of freshly imposed global tariffs.
The Miran nomination introduces fresh uncertainty, requiring Senate confirmation during congressional recess. This MOVE signals the administration's ongoing efforts to reshape monetary policy leadership ahead of potential September rate cuts.
