AI earnings lift stock futures as markets brace for July inflation data US stock futures rose Wednesday as strong AI earnings lifted sentiment before todays inflation data. CoreWeave surged 16% after hours on booming AI-compute demand and Super Micro rallied 7.6% on a revenue forecast that topped the highest estimates, pushing Nasdaq 100 futures up 0.3%. Koreas Kospi jumped 4%, with Samsung and SK Hynix both up about 6%. The bigger event lands at 8:30am ET, when July CPI is expected to show headline inflation easing to 3.4% from 3.5%. Its the first inflation read since the weak jobs report cut September rate-hike odds to about 36%, and a soft print would firm the case for the Fed to hold.
