International & Overnight
What the world traded while the US slept
Overnight moves abroad and in US index futures are a leading tell for how Wall Street opens. Updated every weekday morning, before the bell — Monday, September 28, 2026. These describe where each market is, not where it is going.
US Futures
Stock-index futures are contracts that track an index (the S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow, Russell) and trade almost around the clock — long after the cash market shuts and well before it reopens. Because they keep pricing in overnight news, they are the most direct read on where Wall Street is pointed before the opening bell.
