https://www.briefing.com/stock-market-update Futures market snaps on a SNAP warning 24-May-22 07:58 ET Market is Closed [BRIEFING.COM] S&P futures vs fair value: -41.80. Nasdaq futures vs fair value: -210.40. The S&P 500 futures are down 44 points and are trading 1.1% below fair value. The Nasdaq 100 futures are down 209 points and are trading 1.7% below fair value. The Dow Jones Industrial Average futures are down 219 points and are trading 0.6% below fair value. The negative disposition has been driven primarily by a warning from Snap (SNAP) that it expects its Q2 revenue and adjusted EBITDA to be below the low end of its prior guidance range as macro conditions have deteriorated faster and further than anticipated. The context behind that warning has weighed on investor sentiment from a broader standpoint and it has undercut a number of other social media stocks more directly that derive a large chunk of revenue from online advertising services. That includes names like Alphabet (GOOG), Meta Platforms (FB), Twitter (TWTR), and Pinterest (PINS). Separately, a batch of mostly weaker than expected preliminary PMI readings for May out of the eurozone have added to concerns about slowing growth along with reports that Beijing is stepping up quarantine efforts to stop the spread of COVID. The 10-yr note yield is down four basis points to 2.82%. The U.S. Dollar Index is down 0.1% to 101.94. WTI crude futures are up 0.3% to $110.58/bbl. In U.S. Corporate news:

• Snap (SNAP 15.71, -6.76, -30.0%): says it expects Q2 revenues and adjusted EBITDA to be below low end of prior guidance range as macro conditions deteriorated faster and further than anticipated

• Best Buy (BBY 73.80, +1.21, +1.7%): tops fiscal Q1 estimates, but lowers FY23 EPS guidance range and indicates revenues expected to be below consensus

• Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF 21.13, -5.60, -21.0%): drops sharply following large fiscal Q1 earnings miss and disappointing revenue guidance

• Roblox (RBLX 28.49, -1.57, -5.2%): drops after Atlantic Equities cuts rating to Neutral from Overweight
