Stock Futures Dive as U.S. Debt Causes Jitters

U.S. stock futures were dropping in thin trading on Monday, as lingering concerns about elevated interest rates and the government’s mounting debt burden spoiled any chance of an end-of-year party for markets.

Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dropped 427 points, or 1.0%. Futures tracking the benchmark S&P 500 were falling 1.2% and contracts tied to the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 dived 1.3%.

Investors are still fretting that the Federal Reserve won’t cut interest rates by as much as they were hoping in 2025, with inflation still running clear of the central bank’s 2% target.
