Nasdaq futures moved higher in overnight trading after Wall Street posted a strong rebound in the previous regular session. Nasdaq 100 futures were up 0.5%, signaling continued support for technology shares after a sharp turnaround in sentiment.
The earlier rally on Wall Street was led by Microsoft, which helped power a broader recovery across major U.S. indexes. After the closing bell, upbeat earnings from Amazon added another boost to market optimism and reinforced the positive tone around large-cap tech.
The move suggested investors were willing to add risk again following a volatile stretch, with futures pointing to a steadier start for U.S. markets. Traders are closely watching whether strong results from major companies can keep the rebound going.
In Asia, South Korea's Kospi surged 13%, a dramatic gain that was strong enough to trigger trading curbs. The jump highlighted how quickly sentiment can shift across global equity markets when investors respond to fresh earnings news and renewed appetite for stocks.
