U.S. futures pointed to a slightly higher open, after stocks finished last week lower. There was not a lot of economic data in the previous week to influence the markets, but there could be plenty this week. Before the markets open, October retail sales data and the November Empire Manufacturing Index will be released. At 10:00 am ET, September business inventories data is due.
Tomorrow, reports on producer prices, industrial production and housing conditions will be released. On Wednesday we will see the reports on mortgage applications, housing starts, and consumer prices. The index of leading indicators, weekly jobless claims, and the Philadelphia Fed Survey are due on Thursday. There are no releases scheduled for Friday.
