Stock Futures Fall, Jobs Report Eyed for Fed Rate Decision
Update: 2025-12-16
Description
Stock futures in the U.S. dipped earlier this week, extending a downward trend as investors awaited the delayed November jobs report. This report is pivotal for interest rate direction in the coming year. Futures for the Dow, S and P 500, and Nasdaq all declined, following slight losses at the start of the week. Tech stocks led the losses, with AI concerns impacting Oracle and Broadcom. However, Wall Streets focus shifted to the November nonfarm payrolls report, expected to show a modest job gain of 50,000 and an unemployment rate of 4.4%. This report will influence the Feds interest rate decision in January, along with the upcoming consumer inflation numbers for November.
