Stock market today: Wall Street claws back some of last week's losses as more earnings trickle in

Wall Street bounced back ahead of the opening bell Monday after a dismal week driven by uncertainty over some of President Donald Trump's new economic measures.

Futures for the S&P 500 added 0.5% before the opening bell, while futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 0.7%. Nasdaq futures gained 0.4%.

On Friday, the S&P 500 sank 1.7% for its worst day in two months after the release of weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1.7%, while the Nasdaq composite tumbled 2.2%.

Domino's Pizza slid 3.3% in early trading after its fourth-quarter results fell short of Wall Street expectations, dragged down by slower U.S. sales growth.

Though corporate earnings slow to a trickle this week, several other high-profile companies — including Home Depot, Nvidia and Paramount — will report their most recent quarterly performances.

Also this week, the latest consumer confidence reading and a second estimate on fourth-quarter GDP. A closely watched report on inflation comes Friday.

Better-than-expected profit reports had been helping to offset worries about stubbornly high inflation, which could prevent the Federal Reserve from delivering more relief for the economy and financial markets through lower interest rates.

The Fed has been holding its main interest rate steady after sharply cutting it through the end of last year. At their last policy meeting in January, Fed officials suggested they may stay on hold for a while given worries about how Trump's proposed tariffs and mass deportations of migrants, along with other factors, could push upward on inflation.

While lower rates can boost the economy, they can also encourage spending that puts upward pressure on inflation.
