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

Oil prices were up over the last week with WTI futures at $50.04 per barrel and Brent at $51.74 per barrel.  A year ago, WTI was at $47, and Brent was at $49 - so oil prices are UP year-over-year.

Here is a graph from Gasbuddy.com for nationwide gasoline prices. Nationally prices are at $2.23 per gallon (down about 5 cents per gallon from a year ago).
