The S&P 500 futures are down nine points and are trading 0.2% below fair value, the Nasdaq 100 futures are down 51 points and are trading 0.3% below fair value, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures are down 24 points and are trading 0.1% below fair value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-open trading has been somewhat mixed after stocks logged big gains in November. There is likely some hesitation in play in front of Fed Chair Powell’s discussion during a Fireside Chat at Spelman College today 11:00 a.m. ET.

Dow component Walt Disney (DIS) announced a cash dividend of $0.30\/share in respect of the second half of fiscal year 2023 after suspending its dividend in the spring of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2-yr note yield down two basis points to 4.68% and the 10-yr note yield is down two basis points to 4.33%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

China’s Caixin Manufacturing PMI for November returned into expansion while Manufacturing PMI readings in Germany, France, Spain, and the U.K. all showed a slower pace of ongoing contraction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S. economic data today includes the final November S&P Global U.S. Manufacturing PMI at 9:45 a.m. ET followed by the November ISM Manufacturing Index and October Construction Spending report at 10:00 a.m. ET<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, fighting resumed between Israel and Gaza, but discussions over another truce are said to continue, according to The New York Times. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
