S&P 500 futures fluctuate today; Bitcoin remains weak ahead of U.S. data

U.S. stock futures are trading without a clear direction this Tuesday, after the strong performance recorded in the previous session. As investors assess new economic indicators, Bitcoin remains weak, following the caution in the markets ahead of the release of important data on the U.S. economy.

Before the market opened, the S&P 500 futures were advancing to 7.502,25 pontos, up 0,03%. The Dow Jones futures were down 0,04%, at 52.549,00 pontos, while Nasdaq futures were up 0,20%, traded at 30.113,50 pontos. Meanwhile, the Russell 2000 futures were down 0,04%, at 3.029,40 points.

The market was also tracking the reduction in risk aversion. The VIX, known as Wall Street's volatility indicator, was down 4,13%, to 17,65 points. In the commodities market, gold was down 1,52%, trading at US$ 3.977,40 per ounce.

On Monday, the technology sector led gains in the U.S. stock markets, helping the Dow Jones close the trading session at a new all-time record. The move was supported by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to preserve the Federal Reserve's independence and by easing tensions between the United States and Iran.

Despite the positive performance of the previous day, investors are adopting a more cautious stance this Tuesday. The focus remains on the upcoming economic indicators, which may provide new clues about the trajectory of अमेरिकी monetary policy.

Another highlight on the agenda is the release of Nike's financial results. The sportswear manufacturer is facing a challenging period, marked by slowing sales and strong competition in important international markets.

Throughout the week, the main event for investors will be the release of the official United States jobs report for the month of June, in addition to other labor market indicators.

If the data confirm that employment remains strong, expectations increase that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high for longer or even consider new increases later this year. Meanwhile, the financial markets are monitoring each indicator for signs that could influence both U.S. stock markets and risk assets, including Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrency market.
