# U.S. Stock Futures Rise After a Strong Session and Amazon's Q2 Beat

Amazon jumped 9% in extended trading after beating Q2 revenue estimates, aided by cloud strength and steady AI demand. Apple (AAPL) topped revenue expectations thanks to a 22% iPhone surge, though a miss in Services hurt investor sentiment.

In the regular trading session, major stock indices bounced back hard. Microsoft (MSFT) soared 16% on stronger Azure growth, sparking broad gains across AI-linked chipmakers. The Nasdaq, the S&P 500, and the Dow rose 2.8%, 1.7%, and 1.2%, respectively.

Despite a volatile week, major indices are on track to finish the week higher. The Dow, the S&P 500, and the Nasdaq are up 0.5%, 0.4%, and 0.6%, respectively, so far this week.
