John covers index futures across the S&P, Nasdaq, and Dow; flags Micron and Tesla as names to watch at the open; breaks down this morning's February retail sales report and what it means for the consumer; and checks in on the bond market ahead of Wednesday's critical FOMC meeting and Powell press conference.
