Dow Jones futures were little changed ahead of Tuesday's open, with a busy week of earnings results ahead that includes tech titans Google-parent Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Facebook-owner Meta Platforms (META) and Microsoft (MSFT). Late Monday, First Republic Bank (FRC) crashed after the company's earnings results late.
XAlso late Monday, Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) and First Republic Bank were on the move after earnings. Cadence shares lost nearly 4% in extended trade.
First Republic crashed more than 20% after total deposits cratered 35.5% from last year to $104.5 billion as of March 31, even with the $30 billion injected from the biggest banks. Deposits declined by $72 billion during the quarter, down 40.8% from year-end. FactSet analysts projected deposits dropping to $145 billion.
"With the closure of several banks in March, we experienced unprecedented deposit outflows," commented CFO Neal Holland in a statement.
Early Tuesday, 3M (MMM), Dow (DOW), General Electric (GE), General Motors (GM), Halliburton (HAL), McDonald's (MCD), PepsiCo (PEP), PulteGroup (PHM), Spotify (SPOT), UPS (UPS) and Verizon Communications (VZ) will be key earnings reporters.
Google-parent Alphabet and Microsoft will report late Tuesday. Meta earnings are scheduled for Wednesday after the market close. And Amazon earnings are due late Thursday.

Dow Jones Futures Today: Oil Prices, Treasury Yields
Ahead of Tuesday's opening bell, Dow Jones futures, S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures were little changed vs. fair value in overnight trading. Remember that overnight action in Dow Jones futures and elsewhere doesn't necessarily translate into actual trading in the next regular stock market session.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield fell to 3.51% Monday. Over the last two weeks, the 10-year yield rebounded from its lowest level since mid-September. U.S. oil prices rose Monday, as West Texas Intermediate futures settled just below $79 a barrel.
