E-Mini Dow

E-Mini S&P 500
The Dow climbed 46.85 points, or 0.2%, to close at 27,739.73. The S&P 500 gained 0.3% to end the day at 3,385.51. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.1% to 11,264.95. Solid gains in tech offset the release of disappointing unemployment data.
U.S. weekly jobless claims totaled 1.106 million last week, the Labor Department reported. Economists polled by Dow Jones had expected 923,000 first-time applicants during the week ended Aug. 15. In the week prior, the tally had dropped below 1 million for the first time since mid-March. The jump in unemployment claims came as lawmakers struggled to move forward on a new coronavirus stimulus bill. Recently, an additional unemployment benefit for those impacted by the pandemic expired.
Shares of Facebook rose 2.4% and Apple advanced 2.2% as Big Tech was the best-performing group in the market on Thursday. Amazon climbed 1% and Microsoft closed 2.3% higher.
Existing home sales data are set for release Friday.

E-Mini Nasdaq
U.S. stock futures rose early Friday morning as traders were set to end a week which saw the broader market reach a record level.
Earlier this week, the S&P 500 broke above its late-February high and notched a fresh all-time high. The Nasdaq Composite also hit a record on Thursday. The S&P 500 ended Thursday’s session up 0.4% for the week while the Nasdaq was up over 2% week to date.
Sentiment has been kept in check this week, however, by mixed economic data and a warning from the Federal Reserve.
The Labor Department said Thursday that initial weekly jobless claims came in above 1 million, surpassing a Dow Jones estimate of 923,000. To be sure, continuing claims decreased by more than 600,000.
The latest data on U.S. existing home sales is due for release Friday at 10 a.m. ET.
