NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
U.S. stock futures were little changed ahead of the opening bell.
Still, it won't be long before investors have the latest round of retailer earnings to consider. Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS, Fortune 500), Home Depot (HD, Fortune 500) and Staples (SPLS, Fortune 500) will report results before the opening bell. Intuit (INTU) and Salesforce.com (CRM) will report after the close.
Shares of Urban Outfitters (URBN) were lower in extended trading after the retailer said quarterly profit fell compared to the same period last year.
While markets seem to be lacking any clear direction, the CNNMoney Fear & Greed index indicates that investors continue to feel fearful.
