Wall Street on Thursday was largely higher, helped by post-earnings euphoria for tech titans Meta (META) and Microsoft (MSFT). Sentiment was slightly dampened, however, by economic data that showed stubborn inflation and weak personal spending.

S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures ticked higher on Tuesday as investors assessed earnings reports from some of the top U.S. companies, while Dow futures lost some steam following a gloomy outlook from heavyweight UnitedHealth.
