New York, Feb 3, 2026, 16:25 EST — After-hours Tesla’s stock barely moved in after-hours trading Tuesday, shortly after the company unveiled a new all-wheel-drive Model Y variant priced at $41,990 on its U.S. website.

  • US Stock Futures Slip as Investors Brace for Jobs Data
    July 1, 2026, 6:51 PM EDT. US stock futures slipped 0.1%, with Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq 100 all lower ahead of Thursday's June jobs report. Tech names, especially chip stocks, saw a weaker session. Comments on inflation from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh and stalled US-Iran talks kept sentiment in check. The jobs numbers hit at 8:30 a.m. ET and could steer the Fed's next rate move. Unemployment is expected to be flat, but stronger hiring could push up odds for a rate hike later this year and move markets.
