Good morning!
Futures are pointing to a lower open. As mentioned yesterday, this is a week where we get some sense of the consumer with several big box stores reporting plus the retail sales number. The retail sales number is out and it was mixed with a slight beat vs estimates but pretty significant downward revisions to prior months. Home Depot reported this morning and had its biggest revenue miss since 2002. The stock was initially down 5% (about the expected move) but has recovered a bit, now down 3%. The retail/consumer theme continues all week as we hear from Target, Walmart and more. There are more Fed member speeches today wth the big one (Powell) coming on Friday. The VIX is up this morning, just under 18.
