Semiconductor stocks led gains in Nasdaq futures, rising 0.51%, while Dow futures slipped 0.10% as investors reacted to mixed signals from the Federal Reserve and geopolitical tensions in Iran affecting oil prices. The Fed's recent meeting minutes showed a split among policymakers on future rate hikes, making next week's CPI report crucial for market direction. Despite volatile oil supply concerns from U.S.-Iran conflicts, strong earnings momentum and AI sector strength support optimism for the S&P 500 to reach 7,800-8,000 by year-end if Gulf tensions do not escalate further.
