US stock futures were mixed on Friday after a volatile Wall Street session, where the S&P 500 and Nasdaq eked out modest gains while the Dow slipped. Sentiment stayed fragile as oil prices spiked following President Trump’s warning that the Iran conflict could drag on for weeks, despite saying the U.S. was “getting very close” to ending the war. Travel stocks, including airlines and cruise operators, fell under pressure as rising fuel costs squeezed margins. Tech names were uneven: Tesla slid 5.5% on weaker-than-expected deliveries, while Globalstar jumped 13% after a report said Amazon may pursue an acquisition. The S&P 500 posted its first weekly gain since the conflict began, while the Dow and Nasdaq also advanced. Thursday marked the week’s final trading day ahead of the Good Friday holiday, though investors remain focused on the March jobs report due Friday.
