Stocks rose premarket — after entering a correction yesterday — as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer opted not to block an emergency funding bill last night. That made it likely that the U.S. government won’t shut down this Saturday, easing some of the uncertainty faced by investors.

Futures linked to the Nasdaq 100 — a tech-focused index — gained almost 1.4% as of 8 a.m. in New York. Indicators tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 gained 1.2% and 0.15%, respectively. The Magnificent 7 stocks all gained in premarket trading. Palantir (PLTR) and Dell (DELL) also advanced.

The preliminary Michigan consumer sentiment reading is due at 10 a.m., with the consensus estimate projecting a slide to 64.0 in March from 64.7 in February, according to FactSet (FDS).
