(Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures edged higher on Friday, with a decline in Treasury yields offering some relief to equities despite a drop in Tesla, although all three major indexes looked poised for a weekly loss.

The benchmark 10-year Treasury note yield eased, after rising as high as 4.26% earlier in the week, and was trading around 4.19%.

Meanwhile, Tesla shares dipped 1.8% in premarket trading after a nearly 22% surge in the previous session, as investors cheered the EV-maker's strong sales forecast.

Gains in the stock had lifted the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 on Thursday, the S&P 500's first daily advance of the week.

All three major indexes are set to snap their six-week winning streaks, with equities unsettled by a fairly rapid rise in rates as investors bet a stronger economic outlook could limit the scope of future interest-rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve.

At 5:30 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis were up 82 points, or 0.19%, U.S. S&P 500 E-minis were up 13.75 points, or 0.24%, and Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 56.25 points, or 0.28%.

Shares of Apple dipped 0.8% after data showed iPhone sales in China fell in the third quarter, while Capri Holdings slumped 46.4% after a U.S. judge blocked a pending merger between the company and handbag maker Tapestry.

Shares of memory-chip-maker Western Digital leapt 12% after it topped quarterly profit estimates on Thursday.

A mixed set of earnings across sectors and continued uncertainty around the U.S. presidential election have also made investors cautious in the week.

The week starting Oct. 28 promises to be a crucial one for Wall Street, with earnings from megacaps including Alphabet, Apple and Microsoft, as well as nonfarm payrolls data and the final stretch just before the Nov. 5 election.

Markets have started pricing in a second Donald Trump administration in recent weeks, despite worries of a possibly contested result and whether one party will control Congress following the election.
