Wall Street saw minor losses in premarket trading today, although stock indexes remained close to their all-time highs, largely driven by positive corporate earnings reports. Homebuilders showed early strength, with companies like D.R. Horton and PulteGroup surpassing analyst expectations. On the other hand, General Motors faced a decline in profit and revenue, while Coca-Cola managed to beat profit forecasts but fell short on revenue projections. International markets such as Germany’s DAX and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng experienced fluctuations, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 and South Korea’s Kospi responding to recent political and trade developments. Energy trading also saw movements in benchmark crude oil prices.
