00:08All right. Futures under pressure here ahead of Monday's open, but notably up off of the
00:14overnight and weekend lows on the back of the tariff news here. S&P futures down 0.47 percent.
00:22Dow futures down 0.52 percent. And the Nasdaq futures down 0.62 percent.
00:29Now, let's go ahead and take a look at some cues from last session here.
00:34Consumer discretionary communication services and real estate stocks led the market higher on Friday,
00:39while energy and health care sectors lagged behind and closed lower.
00:45Stock futures fell on Monday after closing higher on Friday. Futures of all major benchmark
00:50indices were in the negative after the Supreme Court struck down federal tariffs imposed by
00:55President Trump. Despite the dramatic 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that invalidated President Trump's
01:01emergency law tariffs, equity markets remained buoyant on Friday. Following the Supreme Court's
01:07decision, Trump announced on Saturday an immediate increase in the baseline tariff rate from 10 to 15
01:13percent. However, it's not yet certain if formal actions have been initiated to implement these
01:18elevated duties. Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.08 percent and the two-year bond
01:24was at 3.48 percent. The Fed's CME watch tool is projecting a 95.9 percent likelihood that we hold
01:34interest rates unchanged in the next meeting, which occurs in March. Now, we have several stocks in
