The bulk of U.S. stock futures were higher on Thursday evening, after a strong day for key benchmark indexes, as earnings releases from large technology companies boosted risk appetite.


At 7:10pm ET (11:00pm GMT), Dow Jones Futures remained steady, while S&P 500 Futures and Nasdaq 100 Futures increased 0.4% and 1.1%, respectively.


Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) rose 3 percent in extended trade after posting Q3 earnings per share of $1.20, above estimates of $1.16, and revenue of $82.96 billion, vs $82.59 billion expected.


Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) surged 13.6% after reporting Q2 losses of $0.20 per share, $0.33 worse than the consensus forecast of $0.13. The actual revenue was $121.23 billion, as opposed to the anticipated $119.18 billion.


Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) slumped 8.5% after announcing Q2 EPS of $0.29, well below analyst estimates of $0.70, on revenues of $15.32 billion as opposed to $17.96 billion.


United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:X) rose 3.5% after reporting Q2 profits per share of $3.86, above estimates of $3.50, and revenues of $6.29 billion, exceeding estimates of $5.50 billion.


Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) lost $0.82 per share in the second quarter, which was worse than the average expectation of $0.68 per share. Actual sales was $764.4 million, which was less than the $804.13 million expected.


DexCom Inc (NASDAQ:DXCM) plummeted 17.8 percent after the company reported Q2 earnings per share of $0.17 instead of $0.19 and revenue of $696.2 million instead of $704.45 million.


Significant inflation data and second-quarter employment expenses will dominate Friday's session, along with earnings announcements from Chevron Corp (NYSE:CVX), Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE:XOM), and Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) (NYSE:PG).


During Thursday's usual trading day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average increased 332 points, or 1%, to 32,529.6, the S&P 500 increased 48.8 points, or 1.2 percent, to 4,072.4, and the technology-focused NASDAQ Composite increased 130.2 points, or 1.1 percent, to 12,522.6.


This week, risk appetite increased as the Federal Reserve delivered a 75 basis point rate decrease and remained more dovish than expected on Wednesday, and as Thursday's dismal GDP data increased the chances of a Fed pause in interest rate increases.


The 10-Year United States interest rate was 2.671% in the bond markets.
