US Stock Market Live: Futures on Wall Street are trading with some green after a disappointing session on Thursday. The phone call between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping left the street disappointed as it sought some bigger announcements instead of just another round of trade talks between the two sparring nations. That, along with an ugly public spat between the President and Tesla chief Elon Musk over the former’s One Big Beautiful Bill weighed on sentiment as Tesla shares sank 14%, taking $152 billion in market capitalisation along with them.  Currently, the Dow futures are up 60 points, while the S&P 500 futures are at the flat line. Nasdaq futures are down 50 points. The Dow Jones fell 100 points yesterday, while Tesla’s crash weighed on the other two indices. All eyes will be on the non-farm payrolls data later this evening as the initial jobless claims reported on Thursday also rose to an eight-month low, adding to a slew of disappointing macro data reported through the week.
