  • Stock Futures Fall as Inflation Fears and Rising Yields Cloud Market Gains
    May 15, 2026, 8:35 AM EDT. US stock futures dropped on Friday, with Nasdaq 100 contracts falling 1.3%, S&P 500 futures down 0.9%, and Dow futures retreating about 0.6%. The declines follow record highs amid growing inflation concerns and rising Treasury yields above 4.5%. The market cautiously reacted after the Trump-Xi summit in Beijing, which produced business-friendly deals but offered little progress on Iran and Taiwan tensions. Oil prices rose past $108 a barrel, exacerbating inflation jitters. Meanwhile, shares of tech company Figma surged following a strong earnings report driven by AI demand. Investors are watching mixed market signals, including a rare momentum spike in the S&P 500 ETF, yet with fewer stocks showing broad technical strength, echoing dot-com era patterns.
