Stock Futures Weaken as Oil Prices and Treasury Yields Rise

Stock futures are pointing to a weaker open as fading hopes for a U.S.-Iran peace agreement push oil prices and Treasury yields higher. Brent crude is rising as the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran comes under pressure, while the 30-year Treasury yield has climbed to around 5.33%, its highest level since 2007. The combination of higher oil and long-term yields is tightening financial conditions and making high-duration technology stocks particularly vulnerable.AI and semiconductor stocks are bearing the brunt of the selling. The weakness comes as investors reassess elevated valuations across the AI trade, with higher borrowing costs adding another headwind to companies whose valuations depend heavily on future growth.The retail sector is providing some support. Home Depot is gaining about 2% after reporting second-quarter sales above expectations, although the company said the housing market remains challenging. Investors will also look to Target and Walmart later this week for a clearer picture of consumer spending and the health of the U.S. consumer.The Federal Reserve's July meeting minutes, due Wednesday, are another catalyst. After the recent weak labor-market data and relatively benign inflation reports, investors have been looking for evidence that policymakers are becoming more comfortable with eventual rate cuts.
