Stock futures were little changed Thursday night during a holiday shortened week, with the Nasdaq Composite on track to end a seven-month winning streak.

Dow Jones Industrial Average futures rose just 10 points. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq-100 futures traded just above the flatline.

Stocks are on pace for a losing month when trading resumes on Friday. A pullback in tech stocks have weighed on the major averages in November, as doubt swirled around the future profitability of AI companies.

Yet some investors are hopeful that this month’s slide will mean a year-end rally is in store for the major averages, as they step into buy stocks that have been unduly punished at more attractive valuations.

As of Wednesday’s close, the Dow and the S&P 500 were slightly lower on the week, each set to snap six straight months of gains. The Nasdaq fell 2%, on track to end a seven month advance.

Stocks are on pace to wrap up a winning week, following a turnaround in tech names. As of Wednesday’s close, the Dow was up more than 2%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were higher by 3% and 4%, respectively.

The stock market was closed Thursday for Thanksgiving Day. It will close early at 1p.m. ET on Friday.
