Early Thursday, Dow Jones futures signaled a small bounce after a tough market sell-off spurred by the Federal Reserve's rate outlook. While Micron Technology struggled with weak guidance, Nvidia and Tesla started to recover. The Bank of Japan and Bank of England announced rate decisions, with the yen weakening. President-elect Donald Trump opposed a government funding resolution, raising shutdown risks.

Micron stock took a hit after its fiscal first-quarter results and guidance missed expectations. The company's shares dived overnight, dragging down related stocks like Western Digital and Seagate Technology. Nvidia initially jumped on Wednesday before reversing, ending the day lower. Its stock, however, rose slightly overnight.

Tesla stock, which has been a hot commodity, also dropped on Wednesday but was up early Thursday. Despite the recent losses, it remains above its moving averages. The market rally took a hard hit on Wednesday, with the Dow suffering its 10th straight loss. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq also saw significant declines.

Investors should pay attention to the market's signals, which suggest a possible shift in character. While futures indicate a positive day two reaction to the Fed meeting, it's unclear if these gains will hold.

The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to a five-month high, and U. S. crude oil prices also increased. Bitcoin, however, plunged. ETFs like the Innovator IBD 50 and iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector stumbled, reflecting the broader market downturn.

As the market continues to react to the Fed's rate outlook and other economic factors, investors should stay informed and adjust their strategies accordingly.
