The Morning Bull - US Market Morning Update Tuesday, Sep, 1 2026

US stock futures are slightly softer this morning, with E-mini S&P 500 contracts down about 0.1%, as investors weigh higher government bond yields against a busy week for US economic scorecards. The US 10-year Treasury yield is around 4.7%, after recent comments from former Fed official Kevin Warsh pushed markets to price a greater chance of an interest rate hike in September. As a result, borrowing costs for mortgages, credit cards and corporate loans may stay high for longer. The key question now is how rate sensitive sectors such as technology, small caps and real estate will cope if policy tightens further and growth data come in mixed.

With bond markets flashing higher yields across the US, UK, Germany and Japan, it can help to shift focus toward sturdier companies screened for 74 resilient stocks with low risk scores.
