U.S. stock futures traded close to the flatline on Friday after Tuesday&#8217;s rally. Futures of all four benchmark indices were slightly lower while fluctuating between gains and losses.
Investors shrugged off President Donald Trump&#8216;s latest tariff announcement. Despite Trump&#8217;s call for &#8220;fair and reciprocal&#8221; tariffs on all U.S. trading partners, the orders he signed on Thursday don&#8217;t call for immediate implementation of the tariffs. The tariffs could take effect as early as April, giving countries time to negotiate.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.54%, while the two-year yield was at 4.31%. According to the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, there is a 97.5% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged for the March meeting.

Insights From Analysts
Comparing the victory of Super Bowl teams to the 20% plus gain in the S&amp;P 500 index, Scott Wren, the senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo explained that there has not been a team that has won three consecutive Super Bowls in the long history of the National Football League.
However, in the long history of the S&amp;P 500, only in the late 1990s the index has been able to produce three consecutive years of 20% plus total returns.
&#8220;Needless to say, whether you are looking at the stock market or professional football, being a big winner three years in a row is a tough row to hoe,&#8221; added Wren.
Highlighting Wells Fargo&#8217;s expectation of 6,600 on the S&amp;P 500 he said, &#8220;Our 6,600 year-end target for the SPX would represent an approximate 12% gain from the Dec. 31, 2024, market close. Add in a bit for dividends and clearly we are not expecting another 20%-plus gain in the market this year. While still a strong year, our projection calls for only slightly better returns than the longer-term historical average.&#8221;
With a number of uncertainties that will potentially impact the market, which include tariffs, a potential rebound in inflation, a surge in bond yields, etc. Wells Fargo sees good economic growth and consumer spending this year as the unemployment rate stays below the long-term historical average.
&#8220;So do not be disappointed. We think investors should be optimistic,&#8221; he said.
The S&amp;P 500 index was 4.20% higher on a year-to-date basis as of Thursday&#8217;s close. Ryan Detrick, the chief markets analyst at Carson Research highlighted a trend surrounding Valentine&#8217;s Day, celebrated on Feb. 14.
According to his data, out of the 32 times since 1951, whenever the index has been higher than 3% year-to-date, the whole year has seen positive returns.
