US stock index futures drifted marginally lower Monday as investors consolidated recent gains ahead of the release of key inflation data this week for more cues on interest rates. 

At 05:45 ET (10:45 GMT), Dow Jones Futures were down 30 points, or 0.1%, S&P 500 Futures dropped 8 points, or 0.1%, and Nasdaq 100 Futures fell 45 points, or 0.2%. 

Futures have slipped slightly after Wall Street indexes hit record highs on Friday, where technology stocks continued to push higher as stronger-than-expected nonfarm payrolls data did little to deter bets on a December rate cut.

The S&P 500 and the NASDAQ Composite closed at fresh records Friday, rising around 1% and over 3% for the week, respectively. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lagged behind, closing the week down 0.6%.
