US Stock Index Futures Close Higher Thursday, Nasdaq 100 Leads With 1.65% Gain

In late New York trading on Thursday, September 17, S&P 500 futures closed up 1.11%, Dow futures rose 0.63%, and Nasdaq 100 futures gained 1.65%. Russell 2000 futures advanced 0.47%. The broad-based climb across all four contracts left the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 with the strongest session gain.

The uniformity of the move—every major contract higher, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 out front and small caps lagging—points to a risk-on session that still favored growth over breadth. That gap between Nasdaq 100 and Russell 2000 futures is the detail worth noting: it suggests positioning is concentrating rather than broadening. Whether small caps close that gap in subsequent sessions is the open question.
