Wall Street on track to regain much of Thursday's losses as Amazon posts strong 3Q results

Wall Street on Friday was poised to claw back some of its losses from a day earlier after some familiar names in the tech sector reported stronger-than-expected quarterly results.

Futures for S&P 500 rose 0.7% while futures for the Dow Jones industrials inched up 0.2%. Nasdaq futures rose a 1.6%, propelled by a soaring Amazon. All three indices are poised to finish the week with gains.
