# Pre-market news summary for US stocks

> U.S. stock index futures are all up, while European stock markets are mixed. Wall Street is facing stagflation alarms, with rising inflation risks potentially limiting the Federal Reserve's room to cut interest rates.

JP Morgan predicts that the Federal Reserve may cut rates consecutively four times. Pinterest plummeted 12% in pre-market trading, while Taiwan Semiconductor's revenue grew 26% in July. MP Materials' Q2 performance exceeded expectations, with its stock price rising over 9% in pre-market trading

① U.S. stock index futures all rose: Dow futures rose 0.24%, S&P 500 futures rose 0.30%, and Nasdaq futures rose 0.26%. ② European stock markets were mixed: Germany's DAX 30 rose 0.01%, France's CAC 40 rose 0.20%, Europe's Stoxx 50 rose 0.16%, while the UK's FTSE 100 fell 0.06%. ③ Wall Street stagflation alarm: Increased tariff pressures and rising inflation risks may severely constrain the Federal Reserve's rate cut space. ④ U.S. earnings season faces "perfectionism": Companies that did not meet Wall Street expectations saw an average single-day stock price drop of 7.4%. ⑤ JP Morgan predicts the Federal Reserve may cut rates four times in September, each by 25 basis points. ⑥ Trump's team is looking for a successor to Powell, with Waller as the top candidate. ⑦ Pinterest plummeted 12% in pre-market trading after the company's earnings showed adjusted earnings per share of $0.33, below analysts' consensus estimate of $0.36. ⑧ Taiwan Semiconductor's July revenue grew 26%, further confirming the sustained demand for AI chips. ⑨ MP Materials' Q2 performance exceeded expectations, with rare earth production surging 120%, and the stock price rose over 9% in pre-market trading
