The Morning Bull – US Market Morning Update Thursday, Jun, 11 2026

US stock futures are pointing lower this morning, with E mini S&P 500 contracts down about 0.8% and Nasdaq 100 futures off roughly 1.1%, as investors focus on fresh signals about inflation and interest rates. The key driver is the May consumer price report, where overall US CPI is expected at 4.2% year on year and core inflation near 2.9%, which means the cost of living is still rising faster than the Federal Reserve’s 2% goal. At the same time, a 9.1 million barrel weekly draw in US crude stocks has underlined pressure on energy prices. The big question for investors is whether these inflation signals keep borrowing costs higher for longer, which would put rate sensitive areas such as growth stocks and parts of the real estate sector under closer scrutiny.
