Stock futures up ahead of retail sales, Citigroup
Charles Schwab, Gannett to report; Empire State Index also due
MADRID (MarketWatch) — U.S. stock futures advanced on Monday, as investors took a batch of China data in stride, and turned to retail-sales data and a regional manufacturing survey on tap, along with earnings due from Citigroup Inc. and Charles Schwab Corp.
While Asia stocks fell in the wake of a mixed bag of China data, European shares moved up, providing a positive backdrop for Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (CBOT
JZ2) , up 52 points, or 0.4%, to 13,297.
Futures for the Standard & Poor’s 500 index (GLC:SPZ2) added 7.3 points, or 0.5%, to 1,428.70. Futures for the Nasdaq-100 (CME:NDZ2) rose 18.75 points, or 0.7%, to 2,728.75.
Earlier Monday, data showed China consumer prices rising in line with expectations and producer prices dropping more than forecast. Over the weekend, data showed China’s trade surplus beat forecasts
