U.S. stock futures are slightly lower in premarket trading after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 posted new record highs on Monday. Oil prices are sharply higher near $100 a barrel, which is weighing on stocks.

The White House confirmed on Monday that Trump and his national security team have discussed Iran’s offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz if the war ends and the U.S. lifts its blockade. Earnings will be in focus for the rest of the week with results due from 5 of the Mag 7 reporting on Wednesday and Thursday. The FOMC meeting begins today with Fed Chair Powell’s final press conference tomorrow after the announcement on rates.
