US Index Futures Take Yet Another Leg Higher

EQUITIES

Equities surging further here, with the e-mini S&P gaining another 20 or so points today to hit new highs at 3464.50.

As was the case at the open, new Dow Jones component Salesforce.com is leading the way higher (+26%), but more support coming from other tech firms Netflix, Adobe, Facebook and Hewlett Packard.

Another stock drawing focus today is Moderna, who trade higher by ~6% following positive test data for their mRNA COVID vaccine.

No surprise then to see Communication services and tech firms right at the top of the pile, defensive energy and utility names a touch weaker.
