U.S. stock futures slipped on Monday night as oil prices resumed their ascent in overnight trading. Futures tied to the S&P 500 slipped 0.4%, while Nasdaq 100 futures lost 0.7%. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures declined 145 points, or 0.3%. Oil prices rose in extended trading after Bloomberg reported that Iran struck a Kuwaiti oil tanker in Dubai waters.
