July 23 (Reuters) -U.S. stock index futures slipped on Tuesday ahead of results from some Big Tech companies expected later in the day that will be parsed to see whether the market's recent record-breaking run is sustainable.
With investors returning to megacap growth stocks on Monday, the S&P 500 .SPX and the Nasdaq .IXIC snapped a three-day losing streak and logged their biggest one-day gain in more than a month.
The two main indexes have pulled back recently following a record rally as investors exited Big Tech stocks in favor of underperforming sections of the market.
Results from Big Tech companies will be key to determine whether U.S. stocks are overvalued or have more room for growth.
Alphabet GOOGL.O and Tesla TSLA.O, two of the so-called "Magnificent Seven" are set to report quarterly results after market close. Both the shares were up around 0.3% each in a largely mixed premarket session for the group of stocks.
AI chip firm Nvidia NVDA.O dropped 0.8% after logging its steepest one-day gain in nearly a month during Monday's session.
After U.S. President Joe Biden withdrew from his reelection campaign and Vice President Kamala Harris has become the Democrat party's presumed nominee, focus moves to the quarterly earnings season for clues on the health of corporate America amid decades-high interest rates.
Other companies reporting results before the bell include General Motors GM.N, United Parcel Service UPS.N, Coca-Cola KO.N and Philip Morris International PM.N.
Of the 74 S&P 500 companies that have reported quarterly results during this earnings season, 81.1% beat expectations, according to LSEG data.
Economic data scheduled for this week, including the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, will be key in assessing the monetary policy outlook amid the recent downtrend in inflation and signs of an easing labor market.
Bets of a 25-basis point interest rate cut by September have shot up to nearly 92% from the near 60% seen last month, according to CME's FedWatch Tool, with two rate cuts seen by the year end.
At 5:17 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis 1YMcv1 were down 4 points, or 0.01%, S&P 500 e-minis EScv1 were down 8.25 points, or 0.15%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis NQcv1 were down 63 points, or 0.31%.
