Nvidia was still in focus early on Friday following the AI darling's Q3 earnings release earlier in the week, with it and other tech giants Meta Platforms and Alphabet trading lower at the open and weighing on the Nasdaq.
Bitcoin was also drawing an amount of investor attention at the open, with the benchmark cryptocurrency hovering near the psychologically important $100,000 mark.

In the corporate space, shares in clothing retailer Gap were more than 10% higher at the open after it raised full-year sales guidance on the back of a Q3 earnings beat.
