Senate lawmakers are working on a bi-partisan spending bill that could fund the federal government until mid-November.
3. -- Costco stock lower following Q4 earnings, cautious consumer outlook
Costco topped Street earnings forecasts, but a cautious consumer, and a lack of new price increases, is holding back gains for the bulk retailer heading into the opening bell.
4. -- Microsoft stock to get boost from $90 billion OpenAI funding valuation
Media reports suggest OpenAI, the tech startup behind ChatGPT, is exploring a share sale that could value it at around $90 billion.
5. -- Micron earnings on deck, with focus on China ban, AI boost to DRAM sales
