Stock market futures were relatively stable on Friday. The S&P 500 and Dow futures showed little change ahead of a significant jobs report. This report could potentially impact interest rates.

Nasdaq futures, however, saw an increase. This rise is attributed to the performance of certain stocks, including those in the chip and software industries. Microchip is one example of a company that contributed to this trend.
