Oracle headlines a busy earnings week alongside Adobe and Dollar General. Energy prices remain volatile after Trump comments sent oil futures sliding, while the Dow futures edged higher. Market attention also focuses on two inflation readings and a Senate housing bill that would force large investors to sell homes.

The economic calendar features key data releases including February home sales, the National Federation of Independent Business's small-business index, and the February consumer-price index. Federal Reserve Vice Chair Michelle Bowman will participate in a bank-regulation discussion in Washington. Apple's new budget-focused iPhone 17e and MacBook Neo hit shelves with prices starting at $599.

Thursday brings earnings from Dick's Sporting Goods, Dollar General, Adobe, Lennar, and Ulta Beauty, plus trade deficit and construction data. Friday's PCE index, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, will be closely watched alongside GDP revisions and consumer sentiment data. The housing bill vote and inflation readings could significantly impact market direction this week.
