SPY is trading at $767.04, up 0.7% from the September 18 close of $761.69 as crude eases immediate inflation and energy-cost concerns.

• Brent crude fell for a fourth consecutive session amid easing supply fears and improving diplomacy.
• S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow futures rose before the open, led by technology, amid U.S.-China optimism and strong semiconductor and AI-linked shares.
• No major U.S. economic release is scheduled before trading begins; oil, geopolitics, and risk sentiment remain primary catalysts.
