Dow Jones Futures: Palantir Jumps On Earnings; Figma, Nvidia, Spotify, Tesla Are Big Movers

Dow Jones futures, along with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures, traded little changed ahead of Tuesday's open. The stock market ended sharply higher Monday, rebounding from Friday's sell-off.

Meanwhile, Palantir Technologies jumped 4% on better-than-expected Q2 results after the close. The company also issued strong Q3 sales guidance and raised its full-year sales outlook.

Elsewhere, Figma, Nvidia, Spotify and Tesla were big movers on the stock market Monday.

Figma cratered more than 27% Monday. Last Thursday, Figma soared in its first day of trading after its initial public offering, up 250% from its listing price. Figma stock is one of the highest-profile IPOs this year.

On the upside, IBD Leaderboard stock Nvidia snapped back after two days of losses, rallying 3.6%. Nvidia stock is about 18% above a 153.13 buy point.

Spotify jumped 5% after the streaming music leader announced plans to raise the price of its premium subscription service in multiple markets outside the U.S.

Finally, Tesla raced 2.2% higher after the firm's board approved an interim stock award of 96 million shares for CEO Elon Musk early Monday, calling it a "good faith" first step and setting the price per share for Musk to exercise his 2018 CEO award package.

Dow Jones Futures Today: Oil Prices, Treasury Yields

On Monday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 1.3%, or 585 points, while the S&P 500 climbed 1.5% and the Nasdaq composite advanced 2%.

Ahead of Tuesday's opening bell, Dow Jones futures, along with S&P 500 futures and tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 futures, were little changed. Remember that overnight action in Dow Jones futures and elsewhere doesn't necessarily translate into actual trading in the next regular stock market session.

On Monday, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ticked lower to 4.2%. And oil prices dropped, as West Texas intermediate futures settled near $66.10 a barrel.
