U.S. stock futures are higher premarket as investors kick off a holiday-shortened week of trading and traders monitor moves in the oil and bond markets.

The moves come after Wall Street had another losing week, with the Dow Index ($DJI), Nasdaq-100 (NDX) and Russell 2000 (RUT) dipping into correction territory. The Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 (SPX) all posted their fifth straight weekly declines.

Stocks are higher this morning despite a rise in oil prices with crude back above $100 a barrel. Trump said overnight that Tehran had, “for the most part,” accepted a 15-point plan to end the U.S.-Iran war. He also said Iran agreed to led an additional 20 oil ships to cross the Strait of Hormuz.

With the conflict with Iran entering its fifth week, investors will continue to watch headlines out of the Middle East along with Jobs data this week.
