U.S. equity futures rise
Jul 29 2025 5:12PM
U.S. stock futures are higher after the broad S&P 500 scored its sixth straight record high close on July 28. It also was the S&P 500's 15th record high close this year.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq also closed at an all-time high.

Stocks got a boost after the European Union struck a trade deal with the United States over the weekend. The deal included billions of dollars worth of investments by the EU in the United States and a 15% tariff for most European goods entering the United States.

Countries that haven't agreed on a trade deal with the United States have until Aug 1 to reach one. Otherwise, President Donald Trump said the baseline global tariff rate will be between 15% and 20%.

At 6:10 a.m. ET, futures tied to the blue-chip Dow added 0.15%, while S&P 500 futures rose 0.28% and Nasdaq futures jumped 0.45%.
