Stock futures are little changed after higher yields lead to losing session: Live updates

Stock Futures Flat as Treasury Yields Pressure Equities
U.S. stock futures remain little changed on Monday night as investors attempt to recover from a losing session driven by rising Treasury yields. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures rose 19 points, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures traded near the flatline. The market is reacting to a relentless climb in yields toward multiyear highs, which has increased borrowing costs and pressured technology stocks. Investors are currently balancing these yields against a weak jobs report that has softened expectations for additional Federal Reserve rate hikes.
Why it matters
Rising bond yields typically lower the present value of future corporate earnings, making growth-heavy tech stocks more vulnerable. The current volatility is tied to a broader bond selloff and investor uncertainty regarding the Federal Reserve's path for interest rates. Recent multi-decade highs in long-term yields have created significant headwinds for equity valuations.
