March Nasdaq 100 E-Mini futures (NQH25) are trending up +0.54% this morning as investors digested earnings reports from big U.S. tech companies.
Tesla (TSLA) gained over +2% in pre-market trading despite reporting weaker-than-expected Q4 results, as the EV maker revealed plans to begin robotaxi operations and projected a “return to growth in 2025.” Also, Meta Platforms (META) rose about +2% in pre-market trading after the social media and tech giant reported better-than-expected Q4 results and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that 2025 would be a “really big year” for AI, though light Q1 revenue guidance capped gains. At the same time, Microsoft (MSFT) fell more than -3% in pre-market trading after the tech giant reported FQ2 Intelligent Cloud revenue that missed analyst expectations and said its cloud-computing business will continue to grow slowly in FQ3.
