🔴 QQQ is trading 1.5% down today on geopolitical risks and NATO withdrawal threats

QQQ is trading 1.5% down in pre-market as escalating geopolitical tensions and threats to U.S. tech firms sour market sentiment.

• Iranian threats against tech companies and a missile strike near Qatar have reversed gains driven by previous de-escalation optimism.
• Investors are reacting to hints of a potential U.S. withdrawal from NATO ahead of Trump's scheduled 9 PM ET address.
• Broader market futures point lower as geopolitical instability outweighs prior Fed signals to overlook oil-driven shocks.
