Stock futures rebound as Microsoft leads Dow Jones stocks near buy points ahead of volatile November.

U.S. stock futures opened slightly higher as the S&P 500 remains in correction territory, down 10.6% from its 2023 high. This week is expected to be significant, with the Federal Reserve rate decision, jobs report, and Apple's earnings report. Investors hope the Fed will signal a pause in raising interest rates. The sell-off has primarily affected Nasdaq and tech shares, with the Nasdaq Composite down over 12% from its high. Disappointing earnings from Big Tech companies have contributed to the market decline.
