Futures down: Nasdaq 0.79%, S&P 0.37%, Dow 0.18%
Feb 10 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures slipped on Friday, with megacap growth companies under pressure after Treasury yields extended gains, while shares of Lyft plunged as the ride-hailing firm forecast current-quarter profit far below estimates. Wall Street's main stock indexes were set to clock declines at the end of a week dominated by hawkish commentary from U.S. Federal Reserve officials, as more than half of the companies on the S&P 500 index wrap up quarterly earnings. The Nasdaq Composite eyed its first weekly fall this year, tracking declines of nearly 2%. Yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose to its highest level in more than a month, last at 3.69%, up 2.9 basis points. U.S. stock indexes fell in the previous session as Treasury yields gained after an auction of 30-year bonds went poorly. Rate-sensitive growth companies led declines in premarket trading on Friday, with Apple Inc , Amazon.com Inc , Microsoft Corp , Tesla Inc and Alphabet Inc down between 0.2% and 2.8%. Rising Treasury yields put valuations of growth stocks under pressure, which was also a recurring theme for 2022. Lyft Inc plummeted 32.9% after it also lowered prices, raising concerns it was falling behind bigger rival Uber Technologies Inc . Uber shares dropped 3.7%. At 5:59 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 60 points, or 0.18%, S&P 500 e-minis were down 15 points, or 0.37%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 97.75 points, or 0.79%.
