    Stock futures mixed as 10-year Treasury yield hits 2002 high

    U.S. stock futures showed mixed performance Thursday as the 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.338%, its highest level since April 2002, driven by concerns over fiscal deficits. Markets are navigating competing signals as yields remain elevated ahead of the Federal Reserve's next policy decision, while corporate earnings resilience provides some support.
