Investing.com - U.S. stock futures were trading in a tight range during Sunday's evening deals, with major benchmark indices surging in the market. Investors eagerly await comments from St. on Tuesday, which could impact stock futures. September S&P 500 futures (ESU23) and September Nasdaq 100 E-Mini futures (NQU23) are down slightly this morning after three consecutive days of gains.
The S&P 500 ended slightly lower on Friday, primarily due to the decline in bank and financial shares. However, market analysts suggest tracking stock futures and premarket prices, especially index futures, to anticipate the market's direction.
European stock markets are expected to open lower on Monday after the release of disappointing Chinese growth data. This news may impact U.S. stock futures as investors assess the global economic situation.
