(MENAFN- Your Mind Media ) US equity futures were under some pressure on Thursday as investors navigated rapid geopolitical developments in the Middle East, changing monetary policy expectations, and fresh corporate catalysts. Hopes for progress in discussions between the US and Iran could support sentiment. However, the repeated pattern of escalation and de-escalation has kept investors cautious, which could sustain uncertainty and limit appetite for risk. At the same time, minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting reinforced hawkish expectations, which could support Treasury yields at elevated levels and create a more challenging environment for equity valuations, particularly in growth-sensitive sectors.

On the corporate front, Nvidia delivered stronger-than-expected results after W’dnesday’s close, helping ease concerns surrounding the AI momentum to a certain extent. CEO Jensen Huang highlighted an expanding customer base and reiterated confidence that future products could support growth beyond the company’s already ambitious sales targets. In the near term, geopolitical developments are likely to remain a dominant market driver, with any renewed tensions capable of quickly reversing sentiment and weighing on equities if inflation concerns increase.
