July 25 (Reuters) -Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures slipped on Thursday, a day aftera crushing selloff in megacap tech stocks steered the indexes to their biggest drop since 2022, with investors looking out for a burst of earnings releases and key economic data.

Megacaps added to their losses in premarket trading on Thursday, withApple AAPL.O, Nvidia NVDA.O Tesla, Alphabet<GOOGL.O> and Amazon.com AMZN.O all in the red.
While the group of heavyweightstocks has poweredthe stock market to all-time highs this year,Wednesday's selloff following the first set of second-quartertech earnings was a wake-up call for investors, adding weight to fears thatthese stocks might be over-stretched and in for more turbulence.
"One could argue that given the moves and flows we saw last week, the platform was already set, and investors were already questioning their position in big tech," Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone, wrote in a note.
"Throw in clear disappointment in Alphabets Q3 capital expenditure guidance, and outright poor numbers from Tesla ... and we can see the effect in MAG7, semiconductors and the AI-related plays."
