US stock futures fell along with European stocks on Monday. This came as traders await the key second-quarter earnings season. They want to see how companies cope with inflation.

Contracts on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 were lower on Monday. This suggests that last week's rally in US stocks has come to a halt. Shares of Twitter fell in premarket trading after Elon Musk announced that he would abandon his $44 billion offer to buy the social media company.

Yields on US Treasuries and European bonds fell.

Price pressures, tighter monetary policy and a slowing global economy continue to put pressure on markets. The US inflation rate is expected to approach 9% by the end of the week, a new high in four decades. This is an indication for the Fed to continue hiking the rate in July. The company's profits will illuminate recession fears that led to an $18 trillion drop in global equities in the first half of the year.

"The real earnings hit will come in the second half as we're hearing from companies, especially retailers, saying they're already seeing weakness from consumers," Ellen Lee, portfolio manager at Causeway Capital Management LLC, saidShanghai reported it had found its first case of the more contagious BA.5 sub-strain of the Omicron strain on Sunday and warned of "very high" risks. This has raised concerns about new quarantine measures, given that China remains committed to eliminating the disease
