  1. US Stock Futures Rise Ahead of Midterm Elections and Earnings

    US stock futures are trending higher as investors prepare for a week featuring midterm elections, October payrolls data, and major corporate earnings. This recovery follows a volatile period and a bruising October marked by a $5 trillion AI rout that pressured tech stocks. Market participants are now focusing on results from Apple, McDonald's, and Qualcomm.
