US stock futures rise as Treasury yields ease and oil prices dip
After three days of declines in U.S. equity indexes, futures for the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq edged higher on Friday. The 10‑year Treasury yield slipped to roughly 5.18%, easing pressure on borrowers. Brent crude fell to $98.83 a barrel as news of near‑agreement between American and Iranian negotiators in New York emerged.
The market shift follows earlier reports of bond‑yield‑driven sell‑offs that pushed the S&P 500, Dow and Nasdaq down on Thursday. Analysts note that the yield movement and oil price change could influence borrowing costs and investor sentiment ahead of the upcoming U.S.–China summit.
