US stock futures fall further; Dow futures down 1%

The widening gap matters more than the headline number: Dow futures are falling roughly twice as hard as S&P 500 futures, a divergence that points to pressure on cyclical, old-economy names rather than a uniform risk-off move. That distinction shapes how the session's weakness should be read, since broad-based selling and sector-specific rotation carry different implications for risk appetite. Whether the Dow's underperformance persists into the cash session, or narrows as the other benchmarks catch down, is the open question.
