According to CNBC, Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average drifted little below the flat line. S&P futures rose less than 0.1%, while Nasdaq 100 futures added more than 0.1%. There were no major movements despite a positive upward trend in Nvidia shares after President Donald Trump approved H200 chip sales to China in a deal that gives the U.S. government a hefty cut.

As far as after-hours trading is concerned, Nvidia rose more than 2%. The movement was recorded on Monday after Trump, on Truth Social, said that the chipmaking giant could ship its H200 chips to “approved customers” in China and elsewhere under the condition that a quarter of the sales will be paid to the U.S. government.

The US President wrote that Chinese President Xi Jinping “responded positively” to the deal. According to CNBC, Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang met Trump last week, and the agreement marks a win for the tech giant after months of trade talks.
