Stock futures were rising modestly Thursday and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were sitting at record highs ahead of the release of the official U.S. jobs report for June.

These stocks were poised to make moves Thursday:

Tesla was up 1% in premarket trading after rising 5% on Wednesday and ending a six-session losing streak even as the electric-vehicle maker posted its worst quarterly decline for deliveries in its history. The company delivered 384,122 cars in the second quarter, down 13.5% from the 444,000 cars delivered a year earlier. The results were better than Wall Street expectations and higher than the 337,000 delivered in the first quarter of 2025.

Lucid, the EV maker, rose 1.1% after reporting 3,309 vehicle deliveries in the second quarter, a record for any quarter, and topping the 2,394 delivered in the same period a year earlier. For the first half of the year, deliveries totaled 6,418, up almost 50% from a year earlier. Competitor Rivian Automotive, meanwhile, delivered 19,301 vehicles in the first half of 2025, down almost 30% year over year. Rivian fell 4.5% on Wednesday after its deliveries numbers were released. The stock rose 0.9% in premarket trading.

Datadog gained 11% after it was announced the software maker would replace Juniper Networks in the S&P 500 index beginning July 9. Juniper was acquired by $Hewlett Packard Enterprise(HPE)$ on Wednesday. Datadog, which makes monitoring and analytics tools for developers and others, has a market capitalization of nearly $47 billion.

Shares of health insurer Centene were up 1.4% in premarket trading. They sank 40% on Thursday after Centene withdrew its fiscal-year earnings guidance because fresh data it had seen on the insurance plans it sells on the Affordable Care Act exchanges were less favorable than anticipated. It was the stock's worst daily percentage decline on record, according to Dow Jones Market Data.

Fellow insurer Molina Healthcare , which also has exposure to the ACA exchanges, tumbled Thursday, dropping 22% for the stock's worst one-day percentage decrease since June 7, 2012, when it fell 31%. In premarket trading, Molina rose 1.7%.

TripAdvisor was up 5.7% after The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, reported activist investor Starboard Value has built a stake of more than 9% in the online travel-review company.
