Futures are slightly weaker following a quiet weekend of news and ahead of the holiday-shortened trading week.
Economically, the only notable number overnight was UK GDP which was slightly weaker than expected, rising 0.9% vs. (E) 1.0%.
Politically, a U.S. government shutdown was averted as Congress passed a bill to fund the government but only through March, which adds complication to Republican plans to pass aggressive pro-growth legislation.
