US stock futures climbed as the Dow Jones, Nasdaq 100, and S&P 500 rebounded following a recent sell-off, with markets closed Friday for Juneteenth. The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at 3.50%-3.75%, signaling no immediate hikes. Smith & Wesson surged 15.37% on better-than-expected earnings, while Freecast soared nearly 88% after a new reseller deal for Starlink Business services. Analysts remain optimistic on US equities, favoring large and mid-cap stocks amid AI trends and steady economic growth forecasts.
