US Stock Market Today S&P 500 Futures Edge Higher On Strong Jobs Data

The Morning Bull – US Market Morning Update Tuesday, Jun, 9 2026

US stock futures are pointing slightly higher this morning, with E-mini S&P 500 contracts up about 0.2% and Nasdaq-100 minis ahead roughly 0.6%, as investors weigh strong US jobs data against rising borrowing costs. Payrolls in May added 172,000 jobs versus 85,000 expected and the unemployment rate held at 4.3%, a combination that keeps talk of a possible year end interest rate hike alive. At the same time, the 10 year Treasury yield sits near 4.57% and consumer borrowing climbed by US$20.7b, raising a clear question for investors in rate sensitive sectors such as banks, real estate and small caps.
