What's moving markets today

US stock futures are mixed this morning.

The Dow closed down 0.1% yesterday, while the S&P 500 added 0.9% and the Nasdaq gained 1.4%.

Stocks to watch: Chevron (CVX), CIGNA (CI), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Honeywell (HON), Madison Square Garden (MSG) and Merck (MRK). All will release earnings before the open.

Investors are keeping an eye on the January jobs report, which is due out on Friday and has left experts guessing what the numbers will show after the longest government shutdown in history.

Also on the radar: the latest developments in US-China trade talks. President Trump was optimistic as another round of negotiations between Washington and Beijing wrapped up yesterday, saying a sweeping agreement was possible.

Still, Trump said he was prepared to enact new sanctions and increase existing ones if a deal isn't struck.

And he suggested that a handshake deal, instead of an official agreement, could extend negotiations beyond this month, though the White House later insisted March 1 was a "hard deadline."
