Investing.com -- U.S. stock futures rose Tuesday, rebounding after the previous session recession-inspired sharp losses.

Here are some of the biggest premarket U.S. stock movers today

  • Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) stock rose 10% after the software services provider raised its annual revenue and profit forecast for the second time this year.

  • Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT) stock rose 4.2% after the industrial giant reported a rise in quarterly adjusted profit, lifted by resilient demand for its larger excavators and other construction equipment against the backdrop of increased infrastructure spending in the U.S.

  • Uber (NYSE:UBER) stock rose 5% as the ride-hailing firm beat estimates for second-quarter revenue and core profit, helped by steady demand for its ride-sharing and food-delivery services.

  • Yum! Brands (NYSE:YUM) stock fell 0.7% after the fast food giant, which includes Taco Bell and KFC, reported a bigger-than-expected fall in same-store sales for the second quarter as sticky inflation discouraged lower-income Americans from dining out.

  • Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock rose 0.7%, helped by the overall positive tone even as the tech giant lost its legal battle against the Department of Justice, with its Google unit being deemed a monopoly.

  • Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock rallied over 11% on better-than-expected revenue in the second quarter and after the EV manufacturer announced that its largest shareholder, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), will invest up to $1.5 billion in cash.

  • CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:CRWD) stock rose 2.8% after brokerage Piper Sandler raised its rating on the cybersecurity company to ‘overweight’ from ‘neutral’, saying the ramifications of the recent outage event will likely be short-lived and at negligible cost.

  • Kenvue (NYSE:KVUE) stock rose 5.1% after the consumer health company beat estimates for second-quarter profit and revenue, helped primarily by better-than-expected sales in its essential health products unit that sells brands including Band-Aid, Listerine and Carefree.
