Today is Tuesday, January 20th.
I'm Julie Morgan.
Stock futures are down early on this Tuesday morning following President Trump's warning of mounting tariffs on key European partners, blocking a U.S.
bid for control of Greenland.
We'll get to Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq futures in a few minutes, but first let's take a look at a few of the biggest movers in pre-market action.
Logitech, NetApp, and CDW are on our biggest movers list today, down 6%, 4%, and 2% respectively.
Shares declined after Morgan Stanley downgraded all three, warning of a perfect storm for IT hardware as corporate spending slows to its weakest pace in 15 years outside of COVID-19.
A fourth-quarter CIO survey pointed to softer demand, while resellers expect 30 to 60 percent of customers to cut PC, server, and storage budgets amid component-driven price increases.
The firm said this marks only the first cut of a hardware down cycle that could last three to five quarters.
CDW was cut to equal weight with a price target of $141.
Logitech to underweight with a price target of $89.
