The Morning Bull – US Market Morning Update Wednesday, Jul, 22 2026
US stock futures are pointing higher, with key contracts linked to the S&P 500 up about 0.5% and Nasdaq 100 futures up roughly 1.3%, as investors weigh fresh inflation worries against easing rate fears abroad. In the US, the 10 year Treasury yield sits near 4.6%, and markets see roughly a 50 to 60% chance of a Federal Reserve rate hike in September, which matters for mortgage costs, credit cards and growth focused stocks. At the same time, rising oil prices are keeping inflation risks alive, putting energy producers and consumer facing companies in focus as investors ask whether earnings can hold up if borrowing costs stay higher for longer.
With inflation worries and rate hike odds pulling markets in opposite directions, investors may wish to focus on 81 resilient stocks with low risk scores.
