U.S. equity futures advanced as investors weighed concerns about scorching inflation and a looming recession against a strong start to the earnings season.

Contracts on the S&P 500 rose 0.5 per cent, while those on the Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.8 per cent Netflix Inc. rallied in New York premarket trading after reporting a surge in subscribers. Tesla Inc. is due to report third-quarter results later Wednesday. European stocks headed for a fifth day of gains.

“The outlook for the U.K. is very, very difficult and certainly when focusing on our asset allocation it's predominantly in the US where we have much higher conviction and certainty of outcome,” Grace Peters, JPMorgan Private Bank's head of investment strategy, said on Bloomberg Television. Upbeat company results, cheaper valuations and U.K. policy reversals have helped buoy risk appetite in recent sessions. At the same time, investors are having to keep track of weakness in the global economy and the impact of persistent inflation on policymakers at the Federal Reserve and other hawkish central banks.

“US equities have priced the most recession risk, and earnings estimates have further to adjust,” strategists including Alex Saunders wrote in a note. “US bonds have priced the least risk, but it will take some time before bonds react to recession risks given the hawkish Fed.”
