US Equity Futures Mostly Lower Pre-Bell Amid Continued Tech Stock Sell-Off, US-Iran War Entering Fourth Month
Jun 5, 2026 6:11 AM

08:48 AM EDT, 06/05/2026 (MT Newswires) -- US equity futures were mostly lower pre-bell Friday as a sell-off in tech stocks continued and the US-Iran conflict entered its fourth month.

Dow Jones Industrial Average futures were 0.1% higher, S&P 500 futures were down 0.5%, and Nasdaq futures were 1.2% lower.

Broadcom ( AVGO ) shares were down 2% in premarket activity after plunging 12.6% on Thursday, joining a broader stock sell-off in the semiconductor industry.

US President Donald Trump said he would meet with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei if a deal is finalized to end the US-Iran war. The ceasefire between the two nations continues to be fragile, with attacks exchanged earlier in the week.

Traders took note of the latest round of earnings, with Ciena (CIEN) reporting higher fiscal Q2 adjusted net income and revenue.

Oil prices were marginally lower, with front-month global benchmark North Sea Brent crude down 0.1% at $94.93 per barrel and US West Texas Intermediate crude 0.1% lower at $92.95 per barrel.

The May national unemployment rate was reported at 4.3%, unchanged from the prior month and meeting estimates compiled by Bloomberg.

In other world markets, Japan's Nikkei closed 1.3% lower, Hong Kong's Hang Seng ended 1.2% lower, and China's Shanghai Composite finished 0.7% lower. Meanwhile, the UK's FTSE 100 was up 0.3%, and Germany's DAX index was steady in Europe's early afternoon session.

In equities, ARM (ARM), Micron Technology ( MU ) , and Marvell Technology ( MRVL ) shares were all down as traders continued unloading stocks in the semiconductor sector. ARM shares fell 5.5%, Micron stock was down 4.1%, and Marvell ( MRVL ) shares dropped 3.5%. Lululemon Athletica ( LULU ) stock was down 11% after the company reported a decline in fiscal Q1 earnings and trimmed its 2026 outlook.

On the winning side, ServiceTitan ( TTAN ) stock was up 13% after the company posted fiscal Q1 results that surpassed analysts' expectations and raised its fiscal 2027 revenue guidance.
