U.S. stock futures edged higher as markets braced for President Trump's speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos. His threats of new tariffs on European nations over Greenland have fueled volatility, sending the 10-year Treasury yield to its highest since August. Gold prices surged past $4,800 an ounce as investors sought safety.

Netflix shares dipped after posting mixed earnings, with Q1 margin and revenue forecasts below Wall Street estimates. The company's $72 billion bid for Warner Bros. Discovery adds complexity. Meanwhile, Berkshire Hathaway filed to potentially sell its entire 27.5% stake in Kraft Heinz, a major shift under new CEO Greg Abel.

Investors are parsing Trump's Davos address for clues on his economic agenda, particularly tariffs. European leaders have called his Greenland demands a form of blackmail. The market's focus remains on whether geopolitical tensions will escalate or subside, influencing risk appetite and safe-haven flows in the coming days.
