Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures sink as worries about frothy valuations run high

Tech led a sharp pullback in US stock futures on Tuesday as doubts about high-running valuations preyed on investors sifting through the latest flurry of quarterly earnings.

S&P 500 futures (ES=F) sank 1.1%, while those on the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 (NQ=F) tumbled 1.5%. Contracts on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (YM=F), which includes fewer tech stocks, fell roughly 0.7%, or around 300 points.

Wall Street is getting nervous that companies aren’t performing well enough to justify their high-riding market valuations, prompting big bank CEOs to flag a likely correction ahead. Palantir (PLTR) shares dropped more than 8% despite solid quarterly results as analysts questioned the stock’s lofty price-to-earnings ratio.

Skepticism is now seeping in about the staying power of this year’s tech-driven rally, even as earnings come in strong. Stocks are retreating from records, after AI-heavy tech names shone in a mixed session on Monday to help lift the Nasdaq (^IXIC) and the S&P 500 (^GSPC).

Before the bell, Uber (UBER) posted strong results, but shares slipped in a sign investors wanted more. Eyes are now on chipmaker AMD’s (AMD) report after market close, with focus on its massive AI deals. Spotify (SPOT) and SuperMicro (SMCI) are also on the docket.

Meanwhile, Norway’s sovereign wealth fund said it will vote against approving Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk’s $1 trillion pay package, marking critical opposition by one of the EV maker’s biggest stakeholders. Shares fell over 3%.

Investors are also keeping their eyes on potential developments in Washington, as the US government shutdown enters its 35th day to equal the record for the longest in history. The stoppage continues to delay the release of key economic data crucial to the Federal Reserve and Wall Street, including the jobs report slated for release this week.

  • Wall Street CEOs warn of a pullback from rich valuations

    Bloomberg reports:

    Wall Street chief executives said investors should brace for an equity market drop of more than 10% in the next 12 to 24 months, and that such a correction may be a positive development.

    Corporate earnings are strong but “what’s challenging are valuations,” said Mike Gitlin, who helps oversee about $3 trillion as president and chief executive officer of investment manager Capital Group, during a financial summit organized by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority on Tuesday.

    On whether stocks are cheap, fair or fully valued, Gitlin said most people “would say we’re somewhere between fair and full, but I don’t think a lot of people would say we’re between cheap and fair,” he said. The same goes for credit spreads, Gitlin added.

    His views were echoed by Morgan Stanley CEO Ted Pick and Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s David Solomon, who also see the possibility of a significant selloff in the coming period and said pullbacks are a normal feature of market cycles.
