US Stock Futures Mixed as Tech Sector Faces AI-Related Pressure; Tesla GainsPreviousNext

US stock futures showed mixed results on Friday as technology stocks faced renewed pressure amid concerns over the AI sector's impact on semiconductor stocks. While the Nasdaq Composite declined, gains in Tesla shares and a drop in oil prices provided some market support. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 opened slightly higher, reflecting cautious investor sentiment amid ongoing tech sector jitters.
