Dow Futures rise as Apple, Fed Loom.

On Monday, U.S. stock futures saw an increase as traders prepared for an eventful week marked by the Federal Reserve’s rate decision, the jobs report, and Apple’s earnings report.

Dow Jones Industrial Average Futures were up 204 points, or 0.6%.

The looming Federal Reserve decision, scheduled for Wednesday, is widely anticipated to result in no change to the current benchmark interest rate. Given that soaring interest rates have been the primary cause of the recent stock market correction, investors are eager for any signals from the Fed that suggest a halt in rate hikes. Traders are expecting the Fed to refrain from further rate increases, at least for the remainder of 2023.

Last week, the 10-year Treasury yield briefly surpassed 5%, but it settled around 4.89% on Monday. The upcoming October jobs report, to be released on Friday, is being closely watched by investors, who are hoping for signs of a labor market slowdown that would give the Fed confidence to maintain its current stance for the rest of the year.
