Stock futures are lower after Friday's strong jobs report fueled a rally in equities. The labor market data also led participants to rethink how aggressive the Fed will be with rate cuts.
Pre-open losses in some mega cap names have weighed down contracts linked to the Dow industrials, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100. Rising market rates are another contributing factor. The 10-yr yield is up two basis points 4.00% and the 2-yr yield is up six basis points to 3.99%.
