Fundamental analysis
18 March, 2022
U.S. stock futures edged down as investors were concerned of further escalation in the war in Ukraine that could lead to shortfalls of commodities supply. Futures tied to the S&P 500 slid 0.6%, pointing to a moderate pullback in the broad-market index after it closed 1.3% higher on Thursday. Nasdaq-100 futures also fell 0.6%, suggesting declines in technology stocks after the opening bell. Stocks have advanced for the past three days, putting the S&P 500 on track for the best weekly performance in over a year. It is up 4.9% so far. Investors said they were assessing the impact the war in Ukraine could have on the U.S. economy and that companies still have strong fundamentals. The recent upward march in oil prices could potentially damp sentiment and spur more worries about inflation, investors said.
