US stocks slid amid rising oil prices on Monday, kicking off a week of earnings and inflation data. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) dipped nearly 0.1%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) fell 0.1%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) declined by 0.3% after a winning week for the major indexes. Investors are also awaiting the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading on Wednesday, which could change the narrative on inflation. The earnings calendar is lighter than in recent weeks, with over 80% of S&P 500 companies already having reported.
