Major U.S. stock indexes are poised to open higher on Monday as the market attempts to recover from last-week's steep downturn.

(Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures rose on Monday, as risk-taking recovered following a sharp selloff on Wall Street in the previous week, while investors awaited pivotal results from chip giant Nvidia and a key inflation report.

US stocks couldn't hold opening gains amid ongoing inflation and economic worries. Nvidia earnings and inflation data are due later this week.
