Premarket movers
Shares of FedEx lost 3.1% after the company reported adjusted earnings of $4.59 a share, below projected $4.65 in per-share earnings. The delivery service's sales exceeded expectations, but the company's profits were constrained by a lack of workers due to the Omicron strain of COVID-19.

US Steel stock fell by 3.6% on a weaker than expected earnings outlook for the next quarter.
In the pharmaceutical sector, shares of Moderna added 1% during the premarket. The company is seeking FDA approval for a second booster shot of its Covid-19 vaccine for adults aged 18 and older. Earlier, Pfizer and BioNTech sent a request for approval of their own second booster shot as well.
On the technical side, yesterday the S&P 500 rose to $4,383, suggesting the index could perform well today. Bullish traders are expected to steer the S&P 500 towards testing $4,433. A breakout above this level would open the way towards the highs at $4,488 and $4,539. If there's low demand for opening long positions near $4,383, the index could break through it downwards and plunge towards the lows at $4,319 and $4,265, nullifying the efforts of bulls.
