A huge gain in NVIDIA (NVDA) after the company beat earnings estimates and raised guidance, along with other semiconductor stocks trading higher in solidarity, has driven the outperformance of the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 futures. Meanwhile, debt ceiling uncertainty has kept the broader market in check.
Angst around the debt ceiling has escalated after Fitch Ratings put the nation's AAA rating on "watch negative." Also, Congressional members will leave Washington for Memorial Day, but will return to vote on legislation if a debt ceiling deal is reached, according to The Hill.
Fitch's action has fueled selling in the Treasury market. The 2-yr note yield is up seven basis points to 4.41% and the 10-yr note yield is up four basis points to 3.75%.
Elsewhere, Germany's Q1 GDP was revised to show a contraction of 0.3% after a 0.4% contraction in Q4, meeting the technical definition of recession with two consecutive quarters of negative GDP. That has renewed underlying concerns about global growth.
Market participants will receive the second estimate for Q1 GDP (Briefing.com consensus 1.1%; prior 1.1%), along with weekly initial jobless claims (Briefing.com consensus 247,000; prior 242,000), today at 8:30 a.m. ET.
