Dow Plummets Amid Inflation Fears and Narrowing Market Rally

Dow Jones futures fell while S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures rose slightly after U.S. markets were closed for Memorial Day. The stock market had a mixed week with the Nasdaq hitting a record high, driven by Nvidia's strong earnings. Key stocks like Microsoft, Merck, Netflix, Eli Lilly, TJX, Arista Networks, and Crocs are near buy points. Upcoming earnings reports from Salesforce, Cava, Dell, Abercrombie & Fitch, Costco, and Pure Storage are notable. Investors are advised to be cautious and prepared, adding exposure gradually.
