From CNBC: Pre-Market Data and Bloomberg futures: S&P futures are up 4 and DOW futures are up 45 (fair value).

Oil prices were up over the last week with WTI futures at $46.30 per barrel and Brent at $48.77 per barrel.  A year ago, WTI was at $49, and Brent was at $48 - so oil prices are down slightly year-over-year.

Here is a graph from Gasbuddy.com for nationwide gasoline prices. Nationally prices are at $2.22 per gallon - a year ago prices were at $2.28 per gallon - so gasoline prices are down 6 cents year-over-year.
