Dow Jones futures and S&P 500 futures edged higher Wednesday morning, while Nasdaq futures rose solidly. Crude oil prices rebounded modestly overnight, while the 10-year Treasury yield continued to fall.

The stock market rally was mixed Tuesday as crude oil prices and other commodity futures retreated while Treasury yields slumped to a four-month low.

Software and some tech megacaps continued to lead. CrowdStrike (CRWD), Zscaler (ZS), Shopify (SHOP), Bill.com (BILL) and Amazon.com (AMZN) broke out. A widespread ransomware attack gave a boost to cybersecurity plays such as CrowdStrike and ZS stock.

UP Fintech (TIGR) plunged 14%.

DIDI stock continued to slide early Wednesday, but many other Chinese stocks showed slimĀ  gains.
