S&P 500 futures pointed to a modest gain at the open, while Nasdaq 100 futures rose 0.4%, boosted by Tesla shares climbing on speculation about eased self-driving car regulations. Gold advanced over 1%, with analysts at Goldman Sachs projecting the metal could hit $3,000 an ounce by 2025, driven by central bank demand and interest rate cuts.
