US pre-open: Futures mixed in quiet year‑end trade

(Sharecast News) - Wall Street futures were mixed ahead of the bell on Monday as the late‑December rally continued to underpin sentiment.
As of 1210 GMT, Dow Jones futures were up 0.01%, while S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures had the indices opening 0.20% and 0.38% lower, respectively.

The Dow closed 20.19 points softer on Friday, knocking the blue-chip from its record high.

With many investors still away for the holidays and trading volumes running thin, the broader tone remained calm prior to the openning bell. With just a few sessions left in 2025, attention will now turn to whether the market will be able to maintain its late‑year footing and extend the positive run that has characterised much of December into 2026.

On the macro front, November pending home sales will be released at 1500 GMT, while the Dallas Federal Reserve's December manufacturing index will follow at 1530 GMT.

No major corporate earnings were slated for release on Monday.
