NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
Firms including Johnson & Johnson (JNJ, Fortune 500), DuPont (DD, Fortune 500) and Verizon (VZ, Fortune 500) are due to report their quarterly results in the morning. Google (GOOG, Fortune 500), IBM (IBM, Fortune 500) and Texas Instruments (TXN, Fortune 500) are up after the bell.
U.S. stock futures were little changed.
Overall, S&P 500 companies are expected to report earnings growth of 3.8% for the last three months of 2012, according to S&P's Capital IQ.
Investors will also get another look at the strength of the housing market recovery on Tuesday, with data on existing home sales due from the National Association of Realtors at 10 a.m. ET.
After a mostly flat trading day Friday, the Dow and S&P 500 climbed during the last hours of trading to finish the week at their highest levels since December 2007. U.S. markets were closed Monday for Martin Luther King Day.
Fear & Greed Index
European markets edged lower in morning trading, while Asian markets ended mixed.
Japan's Nikkei ended narrowly weaker and the yen firmed slightly against the dollar after the Bank of Japan raised its inflation target and announced unlimited government bond purchases from next year. The move was heavily trailed and some analysts said the bank could have been even more ambitious in its bid to stimulate growth.
