The move in futures tied to the tech-heavy index points to weaker risk sentiment following Broadcom's earnings-driven reaction.
Nasdaq 100 futures were down 1.3% following Broadcom results, signaling near-term pressure on the technology-heavy U.S. equity benchmark. The move suggests investors were reassessing sentiment around large-cap tech after the company's earnings update, with the reaction also relevant for Invesco QQQ Trust, the exchange-traded fund tracked by the ticker QQQ.
