Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF is trading 2.1% down in pre-market action as investors brace for the 8:30 AM ET U.S. CPI and real earnings reports, which could reinforce expectations for higher-for-longer Fed policy.

  • The broader market sentiment is risk-off, with Nasdaq futures down over 1% and global indices like the Nikkei and FTSE also trading lower.
  • Profit-taking in mega-cap tech and AI leaders is accelerating, further dragging the information technology sector lower ahead of key economic data.
